How a about a news topic that starts with this sentence:

Did you know[...]?

I start:

Did you know that there is a device created that generates energy without using up any resource?

And did you also know that when you everyday drink 1-2 glasses of beer is actually healthy?

[Hermskii]

Have a link about that device?

About the beer....GOOD!

Did you know that ants when drunk always fall to their left side.

Did you know that rabbits can see behind themselves, but have a blind spot in front of their face.

That zero point energy device sounds fantastic. I assume it runs off of the earth's magnetic field. Imagine everyone getting off of the grid.

My provincial government already has a plan in place where people who can generate their own power through a privately owned wind turbine, or roof top photo electric cells, etc. can upload their extra power into the grid and be paid for it. So even if you are a net receiver of electricity, you still get a nice discount on your energy bills. So I would love to get my hands on one of those devices. I just hope it's real and not a hoax or impractical pipe dream!

They do that in Arizona. There are tax rebates/breaks that are available to help you go solar, wind, or geothermal. I also looked into geothermal, but that is $$$$.

Did you know that flea's can jump 130 times higher than their own height. In human terms this is equal to a 6ft. person jumping 780 ft. into the air.

Did you know that the microwave was invented after a researcher walked by a radar tube and a chocolate bar melted in his pocket.

Did you know that Alexander Graham Bell, who invented the telephone, also set a world water-speed record of over seventy miles an hour at the age of seventy two.

Just trying to get back on track.

Did you know that was a great idea David to get back on track? I did!

[a nameless entity]

And speaking of Graham Bell,

did you know that he set that speed record while at his vacation home in Nova Scotia, Canada?

Did you know that the first "long distance telephone call" took place from Graham Bell's home in Brantford Ontario, to the city of Paris Ontario? Did you know that there's a brass plaque on the store front in Paris Ontario, where the house used to stand that received the call? Do you know or care that I've seen and read it myself?

Did you know that the earliest recorded baseball game in North America took place in Beachville, Ontario? (It's a really, really, small town that stretches along the old highway between Woodstock and London for a short spell. Let them have their claim to fame. )
