The water in the Mediterranean Sea evaporates three times quicker than all the rivers which flow into it can re-fill.

If a dam were to be built across the Strait of Gibraltar stopping Atlantic waters coming in, the Mediterranean would be a desert within 200 years.

The origins of the word "soccer" is British and not American. We used the term "soccer" almost exclusively for many decades to differentiate the game from "Rugby Football". The word "soccer" derived from Association Football, as opposed to Rugby Football.

Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia is the fear of long words.

Not beleiving this to be true, I decided to investigate. And to my amazment it is absolutely true! However, it is commonly misspelt where one to many P's have been added - Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia.
