The article forgot to mention that VERNORS is also the Oldest Soda pop in the world. It was invented during the Civil War and was sold at Dr. Vernors shop ever since. The reason it doesn’t get much credit as the worlds oldest soda is due to A) it isn’t available a lot of places outside Michigan (though that is starting to change) and B) It was bottled and commercialized a little later than some other soda pops and for the first few years was only available at the one store.

Model T's get about 20 mpg, but the downside is that's at a speed of about 45 mph which is not bad considering.

As i recall, in Greenfield Village which is next to the Henry Ford Museum, they sold rides in Model T cars. You could pay for one of these older drivers to give you a whole tour. (this was back in the early 80's, I don't know if they have them now.)

THAT is a work of art.

A wonderful case for the relaxation of copyright for transformative sampling in art.

I am a movie whore and i only recognized a handful of the source material.

Over 90% of these are actually VAUDEVILLE ERA one-liners

One or two are from Broadway shows.

It always disappoints me when people think history started in 1994

They Forgot VERNORS!!!

The Ginger Soda ageed for years in Oak casks and usually available only in Michigan and surrounding areas.

It is the oldest soda in the USA and possibly the world
