Haven't been posting lately, but I've renewed my pledge to try to do so on a daily basis, Monday through Friday.
Today's interesting fact.
One hundred years ago, one third of all children born, died before the age of five. Today it is less than one half of one percent.
And we can thank science and the application of it to modern medicine for this result.
Challenged in September 2010 to come up with interesting facts every day by one of my work colleagues, I've since entertained him and those near his desk with bits of information dredged from my brain. Some of my audience went on holiday and still wanted the facts so I started posting here, every day I do one of them, usually Monday through Friday, and the occasional post on the weekend. I post these facts here almost every day and you will find two posts on some days to make any missing days.
