And earlier too. Ring a ring of roses comes from the Great Plague (1665), "Hush
a-bye baby in the tree-top" may have been written by someone who travelled with
the Pilgrim Fathers. "Mary, Mary quite contrary" could have been about Mary
Tudor or possibly Mary Stewart.

I'm beginning to think that it's the part of the Earth westward of the Western
Isles that doesn't exist (in reality).

Well, I believe that they *do* exist. But whether their inhabitants "are in
reality" is a totally different matter :P

	I'd believe you, but I don't have a habit of listening to people who do 
not exist.

Bah! Of course moon exists, and of course it's made of green cheese. The
real riddle is, does it rotate around its own axis?

Are people really this stupid/insane? Seriously, how can they believe 
the crap they spew?

It's just like that guy Buzz Aldrin punched (well deserved, btw) I'd say 
it's lunacy, but they don't believe in that anyway.
