    There are 10 kinds of people in the world. Those who understand binary numbers, and those that don't.

    Toronto is the Centre of the Universe, so it is the same lattitude (latitude + attitude?) as everywhere (except the ROC).

    Universe is on the move. It does not have a centre. And if it is on the move, what does it leave behind?

    Fun fact: Detroit is the only city in the US from where one would drive south to cross the border into Canada.

    Niagara Falls, NY, sits north of Canada, and I remember a sign on one of the highways that says "South to Canada". However, looking at the map, it looks like all the east-west bridges are angled slightly to the north as you cross into the Great White North...

    thats cool, i built a $ 7000 staircase in the late 70s for a member of Status Quo and he never paid us, wont name him.

    Maybe that's because you built it out of matchsticks?

    He built it for the exposure, but they could never get to agreement about what that meant
