Danny,

Since I am not fluent in Latin, could you please tell me what is a
"Factoid"?

Danny should be able to translate that. He lives at the coast, where
they get lots of touroids from points inland.

How about English? Surely your English dictionary has it listed?

http://encarta.msn.com/dictionary_/factoid.html\\ (definition #1)


"e pluribus unum" at one time was our national motto and still appears
on our coins.

=========================================
It's not in MY dictionary. I have the Concise Oxford English
Dictionary, 1951 edition.

But you've got it wrong. "Factoid" doesn't apply to me anyway.
