The average cost of rehabilitating a seal after the ExxonValdez oil spill in Alaska was $80,000. At a special ceremony, two of the most expensively saved animals were released back into the wild amid cheers and applause from onlookers. A minute later, in full view, they were both eaten by a killer whale.

Men can read smaller print than women; women can hear better then men.

On average, a 4 year old child asks 437 questions a day.

If we could shrink the Earth's population to a village of 100 people, with all existing human ratios remaining the same -- there would be 57 Asians, 21 Europeans, 14 from the (North and South) Americas and 8 African Americans -- 50% of the entire worlds wealth would be in the hands of 6 people; those 6 would be citizens of the United states -- 70 would be unable to read -- 50 would suffer from malnutrition -- only one would have a college education.

In 1977, a 13-year-old kid found a tooth growing out of his left foot.

Bowling used to be done with nine pins. When a law was passed in colonial Connecticut making "bowling at nine pins" illegal, those who ran the games simply started using ten pins.

The layout of Magic Kingdom was based on the layout of a small town in Canada.

I am from Goderich and Walt's family definitely originated from here. This is why our town was chosen for Mickey's hometown parade in 1999, where disney came and put on a parade up Highway 8 and around 'The Square'. The Square is the center of the town, a courthouse with a surrounding park, and 8 streets spoking out.
Walt's great grandfather Arundel moved the family to Goderich Township in the 1830's, and opened a Mill on the Maitland River. The homestead and mill are long gone, but the road they existed on is still called Disney Road. Arundel's son Kepple married a local girl, Mary Richardson, from one of the area's founding families. Mary's family plot is in the retired Holmesville Cemetary. Elias was born here in 1859.Several descendants of the families are still in the area, and an uncle maintained a cottage on Lighthouse Street in Goderich into the 1960's. Walt and Lillian visited there in the 50's, and since the layout of the centre of the square is much like Cinderella Castle, there were rumours that Walt gained ideas for it, from their visit.

about Doctor Who, now it averages around 7 million people (in the UK) a week.

I think either last year or the year before that, Doctor Who beat Star Trek as the longest running Sci-Fi show (episode wise)
