I thought 6 and 8 were true...

[ummmm]

I thought only the great wall of China one was true.

Just the Coca-Cola one.

[rockyracoon]

Never heard of most of them.

Myth number 11:

Putting ten fairly short statements on to a three minute U-tube clip (which takes an additional minute to load and includes and advert) is quicker and simpler for the readers than if they were to be put on a single screen which would take about half a minute to read.

The one about Mrs O is certainly true.

I'd like to know when "popular misconceptions" became "urban myths". Don't people in the rural areas harbor any mistaken beliefs?:)

I think we can blame QI for that!

[stuey]

What is QI?

[Sipowicz]

I was just about to ask do you get QI in Canada?

OK, thanks, Sipowicz. No, we don't; not in my area anyway.
