I'm more a fan of natural cell phone towers myself. They have more antioxidants.

That's a myth. Organic cell phone towers are no healthier than normal ones. Don't even get me started on GMO cell signals.

They are certainly better than a normal tower. They are all over Phoenix, and you barely notice them unless you are looking.

TIL that in 1916 an amendment was proposed to the Constitution that all acts of war would be put to a national vote. People voting yes would have to register as volunteers for service in the United States Army.

Replying to pocketknifeMT · Why let old people vote on the war decision then? If you are required to serve, then only those eligible should get the vote on that topic.

Because their taxes will also pay for the war. The amendment has to many holes to implement properly.

TIL that the world's 15 largest shipping vessels produce more air pollution than all of world's 750 million cars.

Replying to Forlarren · Except those engines are some of the best. Not having the best would directly affect the bottom line, so they try to keep them running in tip top shape to save fuel costs.

Best efficiency on fuel use, not on cleanliness of emissions!

TIL That there is a community of 4 inch long amoebas that live in the Marianas trench. They are the largest single celled organisms in the world and are incredibly toxic.

Replying to Watchmaker85 · Would you eat a rectal thermometer? I would.

A whole one is too much for me. I'd taste it though. Maybe you and I could split one. The appetizers are so filling here as it is.
