Useless InformationDid you know that crabs wee through their eyes? That maidenhair moss is so called because Anglo-saxons thought it looked like pubes? That Albanians have 17 different words for moustache? Astound us with your utterly useless and obscure knowledge.

Hello...........The word "Hello" has only been around since the early days of the telephone. A universal word was needed once international calls became available. The original term used when one answered the phone was "Ahoy-hoy" (Which is why Mr Burns in The Simpsons says it when he answeres a call)
Apologies for length, girth and time taken
