Did You Know? vol. 1
Because I have such interesting questions when working on the reference desk, I have decided to start a new ongoing feature on the Bing Dynasty called Did You Know? Each volume of this column will contain an interesting nugget of knowledge that I learned while librarianing, which I will share with you, my loyal readers. Sound good?

No, I did not know that!
Thank you so much for sharing.
I will make sure to pass this tidbit of information on to my friends, and impress them with my vast amounts of knowledge.

I saw Arenal when I was in Costa Rica - it is so pretty!
I did not know that... now I do! Go Arenal!
