The Crap We Learned in School
So, George Washington didn't confess to chopping down a Cherry Tree, saying the infamous "I can not tell a lie." Here I am in the cherry blossoms at Mt Vernon (not GWs childhood home.)
The normal temperature of the human body falls into a range, not the exact 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit that we all had answer on a biology exam in school. My normal temperature is about 97.4.
When I was in the 4th grade, the science book said that we would run out of oil, by the time I was 20. How could the science book be wrong?
What did you learn in school, that has since been proven to not be true?
