Saw a info facts thing on Youtube tv. They said Exon has enough crude oil in reserves to meet the current world demand for 14 years.

They also said Dave Thomas was given stock to make changes at Kentucky Fried Chicken because it was going banckrupt. Said he came up with the red and white stripes, buckets, offered few menu items and had the colonel do tv ads. After KFC started making profits again he sold his stock back to KFC for enogh money to start Wendy's. Not just one Wendy's, but the whole chain.

Also the largest retailer in the world is the Chinese company that represents most all the Chinese manufacturers. It makes more than Walmart and Amazon put together. And they do not handle warehousing or shipping.

Costco is 2nd in profits to WalMart store wise but does not do any advertising.

Chocolate is different in UK and Europe than USA. In USA it has more sugar and less chocolate and less fat. Even candy with the same name taste completely different.

The apple that makes up the Apple logo has a bite taken out becuase without the bite the designer thought it looked too much like a cherry.
