Factoids

Hey Folks,

Robert Neustadt was hoping we could get some fun factoids together for the show. This would be a good place to post them... however be sure you have some kind of verification that what you post is true. We will need about 26 - 30 of them.

David,
I am not sure how many hours you are with students this summer or how much time they have until production....BUT if they have free time, and want to hear their content come out of Mark's mouth....(can be kinda cool).....
We need some fun facts. I'd like to open every episode with some quirky, fun or outrageous factoid as Mark welcomes viewers. Should be related to animals, nature, space, inventors, artists, architecture. (make sure each is attributed too)
- the average centipede really only has 32 legs.
- Leonardo Da Vinci was allergic to cats
- If you threw a football 20 yards on the moon it would actually go......
(these are made up)
We are also looking for international greetings..... Sawadi. Neehow. Shalom. Prieviet.
We had 3 writers on the last series....and this one has less budget....and less pre-pro time.
Just a thought. They can bullet point them on a few sheets and we can pick and choose.
thanx...
Robert
