"If the facts don't fit the theory, change the facts." Albert Einstein
This section features a selection of miscellaneous, curious facts, many of which are counter-intuitive and may therefore be considered paradoxical in the broadest sense of the word.
There is no particular order or pattern to the facts. They are added (to the end of the list) as they are brought to our attention. The only criteria for entry is for a fact to be in keeping with the spirit of the site.
Readers' suggestions are most welcome. Please email (Relevant sources are appreciated, wherever possible.)
