There
are no buffalo in North America. Technically, the majestic beasts roaming
Yellowstone are actually bison. And lemmings don’t jump off cliffs. They
actually become victims of their overwhelming numbers and in their eagerness to
move from one place to another, accidentally shove some of their fellow
lemmings over the edge. Also stars don’t twinkle. Starlight is diffracted by
our atmosphere, ricocheting like a pinball, creating only the illusion of twinkling.
Thanks, Spock. If we
want someone to hover over us with nitpicky facts, we’ll let you know.
