More April Fools Day Funnies

For more April Fools Day hoaxes from the math and science geek crowd, hike yourself on over to one of my other blogs: The Soul Calendar - go here.

On that blog I place a lot of articles about the mind, how the brain works, some astronomy (killer eclipse photos) and anything else mildly geeky I enjoy when I read magazines like Discover. Enjoy!

People actually believed this hoax back in 1957 about spaghetti growing on trees (already cooked no less) as spaghetti as food was not well known outside Italy back then. Hard to believe today.
