No they didn't, there's too much *conductive* graphite dust in pencils.

Just to add to this, the space pen idea was a waste of time anyway, since biros work fine in space anyway! (QI factoid ++)

The Chairman of The Football Association, Geoff Thompson, is my second-cousin. "Uncle Geoff" comes to visit my Gran often and brings her all the freebies from his foreign trips.

Well I apologise if you already did, but I refer you to your first comment so be nice

No punishment if you're not the only one to know it

OK I’ll try A few strange laws this time

It is illegal to get fish drunk in Oklahoma

In Tennesse, it's illegal for a female to drive a motor vehicle, unless there's a man on the hood of the car, with a shot gun which is used to shoot off rounds of ammunition to alert oncoming drivers that there is a women at the wheel

It is always helpful to have a law that clearly defines when a person is legally intoxicated. In Kentucky, anyone who has been drinking is considered sober until he or she cannot hold onto the ground.
