Pangea, Chromosomes...

What common knowledge do you assume most adults would know but apparently not...

What Pangea is. Based on the Apprentice episode, not as widely known as I assumed.

How many chromosomes a standard human has. DH had to Google it when explaining our sons condition to a friend. I am utterly flabagasted.

Well given that I said part of my flabbergastation (ooh I like new words) was that I assume if I know something then I assume it is common knowledge as I'm crap at general knowledge, yeah clearly it's a massive stealth boast of my massive intellect based in teo random facts. Which actually I was in high school so has not required any specific advanced study. That's how I rock.

Or as posted I was curious what other facts people thought we basic knowledge like planets and the two murderers, some of which I've said I don't know.

So yeah, definately.
