I wonder if it was just me, but there was always this weird optical illusion with the twin towers, the further away you were from them, the larger they appeared!

Guest Tiki Bar Review: Zombie Village – San Francisco, CA by Kevin Crossman (Ultimate Mai-Tai)
In the middle of the 19th century, the sailors of the British Navy were given citrus juice rations as a way to avoid scurvy.
