    You forgot to mention my favourite bit! The Beatles' LOTR movie was turned down by Tolkein himself, due to having lived three doors down from them in 1964. He described the sounds of them practising as "indescribable", which I'm sure is a very evocative term for a writer of his calibre.

    You questioned the popularity of these videos. Your narration is engaging and enthusiastic. The video is interesting and keeps the pace very well while not being busy or difficult to track. These really are a delight to watch. They're the "comic strips" of art, really. It's fun and easily accessible entertainment that is very well done.

    I assure you that eye-rolling had a "negative connotation" WELL before the 1980's! I was born in 1958, and, as early as kindergarten, an eye-roll toward either Mom or Dad would earn me a slap. They would say, "Don't you roll your eyes at me, young man!" It took a lot of discipline to curtail my eye-rolling activities! I'm sure any senior watching this video would absolutely concur with me. Facts that you get out of a book somewhere can't hold a candle to actual experience!

      Rats can't vomit either; it's an anatomic impossibility for them. That's why Strychnine is so effective against them; Strychnine may (occasionally) cause vomiting in other animals - including humans - but rats can't do anything but digest it and die.

    The most likely scenario with the camera you mentioned is probably a lot less foggy if you look at it like this. What I think probably happened, is that they did a limited release market test somewhere that was fairly quiet and far away from large cities, and the test went poorly, hence the scrapped idea. If the statistics you see don't match what you would expect in a small sample size, sometimes companies jump the gun.

    So funny the Mona Lisa / DaVinci fact about him being left handed popped up…I just watched something about him & it showed him painting left handed and I wondered at the time if he really was a lefty or if it was just an oversight. Because I am a sucker for “useless” factoids, I usually jot down a reminder to myself, but forgot to do so! You are doing a great service to bring a plethora of “useless information” to the masses! It helps keep my old brain functioning at least somewhat and honestly I can talk to just about anyone with (what seems like) some degree of intelligence because I know a few key facts about a whole bunch of things!😂😂 Then again it also gives you a quick glance at a topic of interest you might have never heard or realized an interest before! Very helpful for trivia games, as well!
    Here’s a few some people may not know:
    1. In USA highways, all ODD # Hwys go North & South (Interstate 45 North) &
    all EVEN # Hwys go East & West (Interstate 10 East)
    (Obviously, if it’s a loop, it’s a circle, so that doesn’t apply).
    2. If you’re not sure which side of your car to pull closer to pump gas, look at your gas gauge…it will have a picture of a gas ⛽️ tank (sorta like that or it may show the nozzle with a drip) on whichever side of the car your gas tank is on. Big help if you have husband and kids cars getting mixed up in the driveway!
