There are three "facts" that in the last few years I've learned aren't true, and it's been, sigh, disillusioning.
1) Pluto isn't a planet.
2) Brontosaurus, one of the few dinosaurs I could name, is not actually a dinosaur. (that said, does anyone know if apatosaurus is the same thing by a different name?)
3) There aren't just boys and girls. Not even just boys, girls and hermaphrodites- there's also androgen insensitivity (AIS) and pseudohermaphrodites.
I sure hope I didn't burst anyone's bubble.
