Have you seen their name in the ship manifest or arrival records? Perhaps they changed their name with citizenship? Given how easy it is to change one's name - under common law they could simply use the name MacNaughton, see Lindon v. First National Bank, 1882 - why did they care to keep using MacNaught?The article points out that starting in 1906 federal law made it easy to legally change one's name during the citizenship process, so that was another opportunity to change it back if they didn't want the common law process.
In "The Wizard Of Evergreen Terrace" entry, the second equation was meant to imply Homer had come up with a counter-example to Fermat's Last Theorem. 3987¹² + 4365¹² is very close to 4472¹², with a ratio between them of 1.0000000000189426. If you tried to verify it with a standard hand-held calculator there wouldn't be enough digits to show you the values were different. Today I learned the "Ich bin ein Berliner" definite article use, implying a jelly doughnut instead of someone from Berlin, is a false urban legend.
My wife and I enjoyed it a lot. She had not heard a lyrebird before, and ended up laughing often while watching the 2006 era (!) Neatorama page, and the learning why Aardman used the chainsaw sound.
I know the Mongols killed European knights using horse archers. I thought they killed the knights from a distance, and not by killing the horses followed by close-up stabbing, but I can't find anything one way or the other.
"Don't they teach recreational mathematics anymore?" 17 is also the only number where this happens. See OEIS entry A000607 . OEIS is full of pointless examples. :)
To misquote Tolkein: “some things that should not have been forgotten were lost. Conjecture became theory. Theory became fact.” Now I have to train myself, when I look at an avocado, to stop thinking about extinct sloths pooping.
I looks like there's a window between the camera and the goat, because looking now (in daytime) I see headlights apparently reflected off that window as there's definitely no road at goat head height.
Ahh, they excluded ? , ?, and ? because they are extinct. Then again, until now I didn't even know that sauropod, T. rex, and dodo existed as emoji. Don't worry hoopoe, hiding away in the Egyptian hieroglyph ? - your day as an emoji will come! Clearly there should be a followup study using all Unicode characters, as the hieroglyphs include tilapia, dung beetle, horned viper, and baboon. Time to apply for a grant.
Yes, time runs so funny that in the single day of Adam's Ribs they manage to order barbecued spareribs from Chicago and get them delivered and cooked in Korea.

Time-Life - your source - says 1,500 gallons per hour, but those are recent sources. Publications from 1945 say things like "The machine can make 500 gallons of ice cream a day —with storage space for 1500 gallons more." and "a special unit which turns out 10 gallons of ice cream every seven minutes". There is even a picture of one of the 125 hp refrigeration engines .
