When my daughter was a child and I was putting to bed I said, "Go to bed soon and I'll tell an interesting fact:" My idea was to make bribery of knowledge so that she discovers the joy of knowledge its own sake. I think it worked and that she is a bright, more or less intelligent, inquisitive person, besides being handsome. When I told her she said, "Dad, you're my father, you're supposed to think that does not mean it's true." What more proof could require such an observation is a shrewd selection of the facts? They said it in all ages, but particularly on the date of the last few years, first because they were more recent and I remember best, second many of the above facts were very short and simple. ------------------------------------------- Sometimes change as the facts I go --- One night I said, "You know that there are three states of being, solid liquid and gas. Like when the water is ice cold is a little warmer water becomes, then heat and becomes steam. Most things go through these three states, but some, such as iodine, deliquesce, that means going directly from solid to gas and some liquid waste. "What is iodine?" Ellie asked. Is an element of a group called the halogens, a very useful group of chemicals that react with all sorts of things to make a lot of useful compounds. Since the most reactive to less reactive than are fluorine, chlorine, bromine and iodine. " And then, in answer to your question about iodine, "Yes it condenses back to a solid again." That was a fact that got carried away with itself, which began with the intention of saying that the glass at normal room temperature is a liquid, but a very viscous, viscous explain what it means, and tell him about the glass panels in very old churches that have run over the centuries so that the top is thinner than the lower. I went back the other night, that night we got into things chemically joined to do something completely new and different, such as chlorine and sodium salt making. Since then I heard the glass is a myth, the glass is so viscous and old time glass making inaccurate would be the same probability of finding the top wider than the lower and the plasma, which I thought of the gas deionized water, should be seen as another state of being, I do not know. In fact bedside come directly from my head, I can not go to hunt. Of course, Ellie would not tell a deliberate lie, but I do not visit, so do not depend on me. The following is not apocryphal (A Greek word meaning "false writings"), I checked in the dictionary before putting Ellie to bed. "In France there is a town called Nimes. The town of Nimes discovered a way to weave cotton cloth so it is very strong. The fabric became well known and was called Nimes fabric. Over time the little cloth fell and became "De Nimes" a bit like "A Wilton" can describe a particular type of carpet in English. In French the word "of" is "of" that joining the bit of Nimes and became denim, which became denim. Denim is not the only type of cloth to get their name from a city, Damascus, a kind of thick cotton embroidered on both sides with silk and linen are used to old-fashioned, originated in Damascus. That day she had gone shopping and got Ellie.? his first pair of jeans right =================== Remember that just about denim asked well-documented fact leads to another and talking about names reminded me. - - "Most cheeses are named after the place where made, Cheddar Cheddar, where the ravine is in Gloucester Gloucestershire and so on. but not Stilton. Stilton cheese was made in the West, but the farmer who lived next door made the route of the coach and used to put it in the car to go to a large inn that sold in Stilton. They are very popular and bought all their produce is so, although the cheese was made in Stilton, which was where it came from as far as the people who bought the case and that became his name. If you go for a long time following a line of thought as it becomes boring, better take a break and return to the topic later ===================== ==== Alexander the Great is an epithet as anyone else. Titles like "The Pious" and "The Good" are not in the same class, I can not even remember the names that go with them, so one night I told Ellie ---. . "Felipe was the king of Macedonia, about 2,300 years ago and had a son named Alexander, when Alexander was about sixteen some horse dealers from a place called Thesselay parents came to his court Thesselay was a country of grassy plains famous for its horses, maybe it was where the idea of the brand in Middle-earth comes from one of the horses they brought with them was a beautiful black horse. King wanted this horse, but not let anyone up, as soon as they tried to ride threw them. Phillip came away disappointed and saw Alexander was in the back of the crowd of men muttering, as children do when they disagree with their elders. As parents asked if he thought he could do what the grown men could not. Alexander said "yes" so his father told him that he would try to buy the horse for him if he could walk, do not know if he said what would happen if I could, but, of course, he did . Going to the horse the boy took the bride turned around horses and riding. What Alexander had noticed that the horse was back to the sun and the change in the shape of its shadow as the man riding it was frightening.
