I guess this constitutes my "learn something new every day" fact for today.
Also: Did you know, 10% of russia's income comes from the sale of vodka.

30% of people in the world are left-handed.
30% of people in the world have their second toe longer than the first.
Coincidence? I think not.

Yes, I did. Though, acutally, that is no longer true. It was once, and that is where the term "hot potato" came from. In order to "light a fire" under the economy (bolster commerce levels), the government would simultaneously flood the black market with potato vodka, and clamp down (with the KGB) on smuggling- by taxing the hell out of it, often burning the potato fields (ouch) to beat the prices into proper government position.

Actually, according to the International Coalition of Census Takers Annual Report(March 2001, cross-referenced in the Encyclopedia Britanicca, fourth edition), only 23% are left-handed. Please get your information straight before you go posting these out-f*cking-rageous posts about bullsh!t, that can be dangerously misleading.

Don't joke about it brothers, it is indeed a serous matter when one goes around with false information, "half-c ocked" one could say. Just ask Waverly. He's as half-c ocked as anyone I've met.

Generally I'd agree with you on that, Foul. However, such facts as the percentage of left handed people in the world doesn't really constitute a massively important piece of information... well unless your like Flanders and own the leftorium,... but well... hmmm

Frankly, I am deeply insulted (not for myself, but for others on the board) by your patronizing attitude toward left-handers. You sound like a bigot "It's not important that I erred, because I was talking about
Southpaws"
I think you should seek psychiatric help for yourself buddy, Mr. Only Right-Handers Count In This World, holier-than-thou self-serving right-winged crazy man.

Erm, yes well you do realise that right handers are morally superior? You mean you didn't know that? Sheesh, and here I was thinking you were a walking encyclopedia... for shame!
