Aegilops - a genus of grass - has all its letters in the right order. Not to mention other 6 letter words like abhors, accent, access, almost, biopsy, bijoux, billow, chintz, effort, and ghosty.

Syzygy also has no vowels and is the same length (also there is no irony in rhythm having no vowels - I'm guessing you're a yank to not 'get' irony).

Lactose intolerance and milk allergy are not the same thing - one is a rejection of milk, the other is an inability to break down the protein in it.

Sorry to be so picky, but these 'amazing facts' lists bug the hell out of me - those yours is more accurate than most. You at least didn't have that crap about 'a duck's quack doesn't echo'.

Also, it might be that one of the ones I've picked up on is the intentionally false one. In which case sorry.]]> Mon, 11 Aug 2008 12:37:14 PST http://www.purpleslinky.com/Trivia/Random/Some-Odd-But-Fun-Facts.136538#comment176199 ]]> Mon, 23 Jun 2008 07:52:08 PST http://www.purpleslinky.com/Trivia/Random/Some-Odd-But-Fun-Facts.136538#comment171693 ]]> Fri, 20 Jun 2008 05:30:55 PST http://www.purpleslinky.com/Trivia/Random/Some-Odd-But-Fun-Facts.136538#comment170995 ]]> Thu, 19 Jun 2008 13:44:10 PST http://www.purpleslinky.com/Trivia/Random/Some-Odd-But-Fun-Facts.136538#comment163392 ]]> Thu, 12 Jun 2008 08:12:40 PST http://www.purpleslinky.com/Trivia/Random/Some-Odd-But-Fun-Facts.136538#comment163325 its a nice article btw]]> Thu, 12 Jun 2008 05:26:30 PST http://www.purpleslinky.com/Trivia/Random/Some-Odd-But-Fun-Facts.136538#comment162893 ]]> Wed, 11 Jun 2008 14:07:42 PST http://www.purpleslinky.com/Trivia/Random/Some-Odd-But-Fun-Facts.136538#comment162078 is it the ostrich one?]]> Tue, 10 Jun 2008 10:42:26 PST
