  1. "The Promise" was the only hit of the British band When in Rome.

    It was different from earlier New Wave songs.

  6. Credit card companies tried pushing their product on college students by offering free pizza and t-shirts.

  15. The US classifies thousands of new secrets every day with many not actually secret.

    A court case used to justify national security exemptions from judicial review was found decades later to not actually involve national security information.

    And if the Department of Defense wants to classify much more.

  20. The Freedom of Information Act was meant to make to make abuses open for correction.

    For a brief period, it did just that.

  25. More are lamenting the loss of the old internet.

    Some even claim the new internet that took its place is dead.

  30. Potassium bromate has been shown to cause tumors.
