Phone service was established at the White House one year after its invention. President Rutherford B. Hayes was the first to have phone service.

The Richter Scale is logarithmic, which means that each successive whole number represents a 10-fold increase in power. Thus, an earthquake that measures 8 would be 10,000 times stronger than an earthquake that measures 4.

When you tell someone "just a moment", remember that a "moment" is a British unit of time lasting 90 seconds.
