  • Good but most facts are about names

    I don’t know it’s a new thing but most facts are about names lately. I think this should be “there is no such thing as a fact that isn’t a name”. I use this twice a week to fall asleep and luckily the name facts put me to sleep

No Such Thing As Elizabeth I's Burnt Umber
Q: You have a sheet of paper in front of you; is it like the colors are projected, or more internal for you when you see them on the page?
Angela explains it's an internal visualization rather than an external projection, with the color immediately associated with the symbol in her mind, not a percept that appears on the page.
No Such Thing As A Simon Cowell Bell
Q: How interesting is the correlation between heartbeats and firing a gun?
