The fact thread.

I love reading fact books. We have quote threads and games threads. I thought a random fact thread would be fun for fellow fact lovers such as myself.

I will start with one that hits close to home:

In 1901, General Electric Company built the first alternating current power plant at Ehrenfeld, Pennsylvania. The plant, designed to eliminate the difficulties in long-distance direct current transmission, was built for the Webster Coal and Coke Company.

Here is a fact - there are 10 to the power of 115 possible positions in chess. That is 10 with 115 zeros behind it! An awful lot of possible situations on the chess board.
