Useless Information
Did 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.

The alphabet
Hairy:
I believe its in the order it is (i.e. a, b, c, d) based on the Greek alphabet(alpha, beta, gamma, delta, epsilon...)
The standard Greek alphabet (transliterated) is: a, b, g, d, e, z, e(long) th, i, k, l, m, n, ks, o, p, r, s, t, u, ph, ps, o (long). Other letters are derived from Germanic/Saxon roots I think.
