I have these cool books that answer all these questions that people ask, like "Why don't people smile in old photos?" and "Why is the O in 'THE UNITED STATES oF AMERICA' on the penny a small O?". Anyone else familiar with these books by David Feldman?

I have never heard of these books, but now you have my attention, and I will definately go out to Barnes & Nobles and check them out.

In Sweden we have a guy named Fredrik Lindström who´s written a few books himself and he tends to ask stuff like why it hurts when a cupboard falls into your head, why it´s so nasty to have a dead ferret as a roommate and why the word lisp isn´t pronounced lithp. Most of those things sound insane, but he´s actually very bright.
