(In order not to loose old "interesting fact of the week" postings, I have decided to post them, which I am aware is not an elegant solution. The advantage:...when you see such a post, you know that I have gotten around making the weeks pass in my blog...which so far has not really followed any calender known to man!...i.e. a new interesting fact is posted under the assigned section)
