    <![CDATA[<p>History is . . . <br/> (a) more or less bunk.<br/> (b) a nightmare from which I am trying to awaken.<br/> (c) as thoroughly infected with lies as a street whore with syphilis.</p> <p>Match your answers:<br/> (1) Stephen Daedalus of James Joyce's Ulysses<br/> (2) Henry Ford<br/> (3) Arthur Schopenhauer</p> <p>It turns out that answer need not be bunk, nightmarish, or diseased. In the hands of mental_floss, history's most interesting bits have been handpicked and roasted to perfection. Packed with little-known stories and outrageous—but accurate—facts, you'll laugh yourself smarter on this joyride through 60,000 years of human civilization. Remember: just because it's true, doesn't mean it's boring!</p>]]>

    <body><![CDATA[Pre-history through &quot;middle ages&quot; incredibly enlightening. Brings out new discoveries and places old theories to rest. For the most part renaissance through present has very little unknown knowledge. Sid bits in red are generally hilarious. Skipping over them is not advised.]]></body>
