ITT you tell us 1 fact we don't already know

When you open a can of Coke, Beer or whatever you sometimes see some smoke coming off it. That is the CO2 in the drink boiling and turning into a gas as the pressure is released when the can is opened

Old girlfriend told me about this, IIRC, it was 'Hill Hill On The Hill'


Mine: (Bit rubbish) Clocks with roman numerals always have IIII instead of IV. This is due to some royal fool having a clock made and not realising that it had been made wrong, so people made all of their clocks the same...

The only NASA space shuttle to have ever landed in the UK is the Enterprise. It was transported to the UK on the back of a 747 as part of a NASA PR excercise. Unfortunately, as a space shuttle, it never actually made it into space (it was used as a test vehicle for space shuttle technology).

It landed at Fairford air strip, not far from Cirencester in Gloustershire, Apparently I saw it but am too young to remember it. Have photographs of the shuttle on approach though. Very cool.

I'll get back to folks on the fact one.
