Despite plants being associated with the color green, chlorophyll is actually a poor absorber of green wavelengths of light.
Hence the reason plants are green, because they absorb the blue and red wavelengths of light, but reflect the green.

My favorite geography one: You get on a plane at Tampa Bay, Florida and fly due south. Which South American countries do you fly over?
Answer is none of them. You miss the entire continent because you are too far west.
Windows XP also had the problem that when it launched, a lot of people’s computers weren’t really up to running XP it very well. Windows XP will run on a Pentium III with 256 MB of ram, but it wasn’t particularly happy about it. A few years later when people when people were running XP on a Core 2 Duo with 2GB of ram, it was a much smoother experience.


Most people have their favorite old version of Winamp that they run.
I used Winamp for a very long time myself, but ended up giving it up when I gave up Windows. (yes, I know you can run it under Wine, but I also have Qmmp now)
Hell, I’m a bit surprised they managed to make that one in 1946.
