Quite Interesting!

There are many quite interesting facts in the world.

The word "Hello" was invented by Edison, the man who is most famous for the thing he did NOT invent, IE the lightbulb. It was contained in a letter from him in 1887. Previously, there was only the word "Hullo", which was not a greeting but rather an expression of surprise.

The word "Boredom", on the other hand, was invented by Charles Dickens. Plenty of people think that Dickens was a close friend of H.C Andersen, which is simply not true. Andersen lived with Dickens for a few weeks during his stay in England, and Dickens thought he was so dull and boring that he couldn't stand him.

The longest animal in the world is the Bootlace Worm, a type of sea-living worm.

Lightbulbs emit more heat than light.

Natural pearls form from the remains of parasitic nematode worms inside of clams.

The chances of finding a pearl in an oyster in a restaurant are, on the other hand, nil, as that particular kind of bivalve mollusk does not produce pearls at all.
