saturdaygig Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 1) Venus is the only planet that rotates clockwise Hmmm, that's not a fact. It would depend whether you view from the top or the bottom, and since the solar system doesn't have a 'right way up' as such, there isn't even a clear top and bottom. It the planet that revolves the opposite way to all the others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

World_Domination Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 In the last 150 years, the strength of Earth's Magnetic field has decreased by 5% per century. This doesn't seem like a very fast decrease, but it is one of the fastest ones that has been verified in the 800,000 year magnetic record we now have. At this rate, in 10 centuries we will be 50% below our current field strength, and after 2000 years we could be at zero-strength. The data on past reversals seems to show that, when the field reaches 10% of its current strength, a magnetic reversal can be triggered. It has been 730,000 years since the last reversal ended. We are certainly long overdue for a reversal, by some statistical estimates. taken from a page called RevScience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roonst83 Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 McDonalds have to include relish and gherkin on their hamburgers as without them it would be classed as a desert due to the high amounts of sugar in its nutritional value. McDonalds is the world's largest toy retail company (happy meal) Altho the meat used for mcdonalds' bugers is artificially processed, they are allowed to state '100% beef' on their packaging if they wish due to the fact that the company who manufactures the meat that mcdonalds use bought a patent to the company name of '100% beef.

paddy Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 Tried to post this earlier but it still seems to be here as I get in. So... Hmmm, that's not a fact. It would depend whether you view from the top or the bottom, and since the solar system doesn't have a 'right way up' as such, there isn't even a clear top and bottom. Surely no matter which way you look at something doesn't affect which way it rotates? The Earth rotates anti clockwise, so surely by looking at the planet we can work out which way it rotates?

nevillain Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 Ok fellas, trousers down time....the length of your middle finger from its tip to the knuckle equates to the length of your dick (can i say dick?). Also you neck is approximately half the size of your waist. So to save time if a buttoned up pair of jeans meets arounf=d your neck they should fit around your waist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
