40,000 members online here, which means 0.06% of the estimated world population are online at FabS (assuming 69b peeps in the world)
Anymore Monday facts to share...
Also less mundane but hummingbirds are the only bird that can fly backwards.

Wankle engine is a type of internal combustion engine that replaces traditional reciprocating pistons with a triangular rotor spinning inside an oval-shaped housing. It converts expanding gas directly into rotational motion, resulting in a compact, lightweight, and incredibly smooth-running motor. |
