We know, it’s absurd. 20 Things F You Didn’t Know About Everything, indeed! For one thing, there are surely many more than 20 things that you—like all of us—don’t know about any one thing. On another level, it’s obvious to anyone smart enough to read the title that no book can possibly contain even one thing you don’t know about every single thing! That way lies infinity, madness, an impossibly bulky volume. Imagine the cost of paper, ink, printing, shipping. We never meant to be taken literally, so a little slack is clearly in order. But you did pick up the book. Chances are it was for one of two reasons: (1) you’re inherently curious or (2) you want to prove us wrong, because you’re used to knowing just about ev- erything. Either way, this book can be useful to you.
