    The statement about tire-marks left on asphalt being made of bitumen is complex. If you're referring to the lines from continuous usage, yes. If you're talking about ripping up the tires with a standstill it's absolutely rubber that gets left behind. Like I've seen it happen in front of me numerous times and seen thick wads of rubber left behind and the bald af tires afterwards. They get soft like crayon after a good spin. It probably depends a bit on how soft the roads are, if they're extremely high traffic areas and they're using hotmix it's more likely bitumen. But it's definitely not bitumen when it's on concrete and tires will still leave marks.

    37:00 British tyres may not make skid marks, but American tires do. I once had to screech to a halt, brake pedal on the floor, hand brake pulled hard, the whole deal. When I got out of the car, my front tires each had a flat spot in one place where they'd been worn down (before anti-lock brakes), and sure enough, I left skid marks. They shook so much after that, I had to replace them.

      I was in the car and noted it. They had just put in new curb cuts with the dots. My thought at the time was they hadn't cut the turn deep enough and it will be broken up in no time. @spacewarpphotogharhy1667

    USAAF bombers flying to Germany at the start were camouflaged. This was removed completely, front to rear, wingtip to wingtip, except for some sections on the insides of the engines. Reason, it saved fuel, already back in WW2 this was understood. The reason for keeping some patches in the engines was because the bare aluminum skin would blind the pilots due to reflecting sunlight, so the matt paint was kept on those areas, but for the rest, the whole plane would be devoid of any paint.
    RAF bombers flew by night. So perhaps they didn't experience the influence of the sun...

    The statement about running out of ISBNs would depend on how many pages each volume is. Sandy gave no information about that, so her statement is in itself false.

      I doesn’t matter how many pages the book is. A googleplex is 10^(10^100). If the book was 100,1000, or 1million pages, it wouldn’t matter in the context of the number of volumes it would take of the amount of books it would take to write down the actual number
