As far as I was aware, most people.

Uh.......I have never heard of that. How would Romans even know where England was? It was really far away from Rome.

No, the ancient Romans were very well aware of where England was.

In fact, they conquered part of it.

Actually in a part of the Romans Era the Romans even traded with the Britons until they invaded it and tried to conquer Scotland, then failed etc...but the romans built most of the roads and motorways on Britain (I've just spent a whole term learning about the romans - and one week of it was dedicated to this very part of it -plus I live in England  big_smile )

Henry Ford did not invent the automobile, Daimler-Benz did. Mercedes-Benz is named after his daughter.

Daimler-Benz was a company name. Karl Benz invented it, and then they changed the name of the company later.

And there's 20 kids and counting too. But that's counting grandchildren, therefore Bach had more children than them.  yikes

the mythbusters examined quacks and found an echo in the wave chart

it's just hard to detect by ear because a quack isn't a noise that echos very well
