    I saw this fact on my Google Gadjet last night:

    The last uncharted island in the world was discovered in 1903 at the far edge of Indonesia.

    Does this incluce volcanic islands like Surtsey?

    Yes.

  3.  

    Or Nepetati, the one that is rising in the Pacific and will surface within the next 5 years?

    But I guess that has been charted. Google Earth has screwed up any chance of me finding one.

    Here is a question. How big is the largest island that's in a freshwater lake in an island in a freshwater lake? There is one close to Toronto which between two and three kilometers long. (I do not know the answer to this one)

    Yes.

    Then that would mean that the fact is invalid, this deeming this fact a factoid

    I am not quite sure if you wrote that so I would be right or would be wrong. Reminds me of an unanswerable question my girlfriend once asked...

    Why do you always disagree with me?

    That's right up there with "Have you stopped beating your wife?".

    Some one once told me not to be so "predantic". That's another good one because of course if you correct them you just prove them right!

    I think you mean "pedantic" -- predantic would be the act of being dantic before the appropriate opportunity arises.

    Yes that's right but if the person got it wrong deliberatley so that when I said "don't you mean pedantic" they could say "see, told you, you were pedantic".:bigsmile:

    A sailor writes in the log one day "Captain was drunk today." The captain got angry upon reading this and told him never to write such a thing again.

    Next day, the sailor writes in the log "Captain was NOT drunk today."
