antidisestblishmentarianism...
is a long way from being the longest.
Floccinaucinihilipilification - The action of estimating as worthless is better
Pnuemonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis -
a lung disease caused by breathing in dust is even longer at 45 letters, but may be a bit of a made up word.
Still a long way behind German, which offers
Donaudampfschifffahrtsgesellschaftskapitaensfrauenverbandsvorsitzendenaufwandsentschaedigungsrahmenordnungsrichtlinienen
meaning:
The Danube Steam Navigation Company's Captain's wives federation for basic remuneration expenditure guidelines.

Zodiac
trogdor-lover - the signs of the zodiac are precisely defined regions that divide the sky into 12 equal arcs. They are loosely based on the constelations that the ancient greeks used but are not exactly the same, partly due to the Earth's precesion but mainly for convinience. Some astrologers may say there are different numbers of signs or that they occur at different times, but they are just plain wrong.
Also, Rasputin's autopsy would show that he drowned since his lungs would have filled with water even after death. If he was thrown in quickly then the poison and shots may not even have had time to kill him and so it would be entirely natural for him to drown.

Rasputin was not killed by a headshot from a British spy.
He was fed cakes and wine laced with enough cyanide to kill several men. Rasputin ate an drank and showed no ill efffects. Then Prince Felix Yussupov shot him through the chest and clubbed him on the head with a lead filled walking stick. He was then thrown into the Neva River.
When the body was recovered, the autopsy revealed that Rasputin had drowned.

Despite what Bashman wrote below, surely Rasputin was poisoned, shot several times, rolled up in a carpet and dumped in the river. After the body was discovered, the autopsy showed that he died by drowning.

P3TA
At the headquarters for the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) there is a massive refrigeration room used for the storing of dead animals.
I don't remember why PETA would even need such a room, but I saw it on "Penn & Teller's BS!" show

Hitler
Time magazine voted Adolf Hitler 'Man of the Year' for 1938. I suppose the holocaust didn't actually take place that year, but the good people at Time aren't the most forward thinking of folk, I'm sure you'll agree.
Maybe that's what pushed him over the edge in an egotistical sense. Damn you Time magazine...
