Hey Dudes!

Hey, This is my new blog and I would like to welcome you all! This is the refuge of words and you may find friends, comfort and kindness here.

I have some interesting facts to tell you, some of which I disagree with.

Fact 1 – Hypoallergenic Cats

People all over the world who are allergic to cats now have a solution. Hypoallergenic cats. These are genetically engineered cats made by Allerca, Inc., a biotechnology firm in San Diego, California. I disagree with this breeding and changing their DNA, if people are allergic to cats, why don’t they get a hamster?

Fact 2 – Electricity Producing Gates.

In Eastern Japanese train stations are researching more environmentally friendly railway stations. The experimental ticket gates produce electricity as people pass through them.

Fact 3 – Yahoo! Complex Name.

Yahoo! is a complex searching mechanism but many don’t know it has a complicated name too. Yahoo! Stands for “Yet Another Hierarchical Officious Oracle.” The engine was named by PhD candidates, David Filo and Jerry Yang who were studying at Stanford University.
