Walter, I remember "White Castle". As a kid I always ate them, because they were so cheap. They were sold in a little white box with an opening at the end.
Not much meat in them, but lots of fat!
If Pepsi Cola has a site in an Arabian country, this is clear, since Arab countries are trying to boycot Coca Cola and Pepsi Cola since January this year.
Walter:
Is that a fact?
For what reason?
steissd, You have one wrong: Albore invented the internet.
LOL c.i.
steissed:
Pioneerig work in nuclear physics was carried out at the University of Chicago in a lab located right under the football field in Chicago.
You mean Albert Gore? Well, he is an American as well...
steissd
Reis got the patent for his telephone before Bell. The Wright brothers read about the works and planes of Cayley, and Langley, and the hang-gliding flights of Otto Lilienthal. Otto Hahn did some first basic researches to nuclear weapons ... .
I doubt that you really can always just name one single person for one invention.
Hey, c.i., Al Gore also invented the Electoral College, to his everlasting regret.
roger, Thanks for my laugh for today! It seems steissd doesn't understand American humor.

I know. And then we have 'Mecca Cola' here in Europe.
Check out the Zam Zam Cola.
Do you know the significance of this?http://www.themodernreligion.com/science/zamzam.html
Mr. Hinteler, no one denies importance of contribution of Otto Hahn and Fritz Straßmann to the nuclear physics. I can add to the list of the nuclear weapons' "ancestors" such scientists as Werner Karl von Heisenberg, Max von Laue, Henri Beckerel, Marie and Pierre Curie, Albert Einstein, Niels Bohr, Lisa Meitner, and many others. But the fact is that the first nuclear bomb appeared in the USA and not in Europe.
I understood your humor well, C.I. It is based on some slip of tongue of Mr. Gore. I continued with this humorous line, but I was misunderstood..
When the ARPANET was first introduced in mid-60s, Mr. Gore was a teenager, and he could not take an active part in its development.
About now, Gore is delighted he isn't the President.
He's enjoying himself too much by blasting GWB.
