Mobile Phones and Petrol Stations
---------------------------------
Despite the huge signs and angry petrol pump attendents, it's actually never been scientifically proved that a mobile signal could set off a fire in a petrol station. In fact, all electrical devices have to meet certain standards and creating a spark of sufficent amounts to ignite petrol fumes would usually mean you need to chuck your mobile away immediately.
There have never been any verified cases that I could find where this has actually happened, either. Which either shows that it's not possible, or that people don't talk on the phone while filling their cars.
That said, I've been told by Tesco staff that they have a health and safety video with an incident of someone using their phone and causing a fire, but this is more than likely a mock up.

Despite popular belief, this old nursery rhyme is not connected with the Black Death (Plague). The rhyme hasn't actually been around long enough to have been created at the time and the several original versions were not as easy to connect to the plague details as they are now.
However, it's just possible that the modern version could have been created by some creative minded children who had just finished a history lesson before entering the playground...

This is because it takes the cat however long to realise it is falling and bring itself around to land.
