-Coins such as quarters and dimes have ridges on them because people used to cut the edges off them and melt them down and sell the metal to make more money, but now that they have ridges, it would be noticeable if someone did that.
-The term "sleep tight" comes from how mattresses used to be made. Before the advent of modern mattresses, ropes were spread across the bed frame in a criss-cross pattern to form a sleeping platform. The ropes would sag with time and weight and had to be tightened periodically.

The human nervous system is powered by the electrochemical reaction of sodium & potassium, a polarity of battery elements if you will, I think the speed is slower than electricity probably due to the fact that organic nerves are not the best electrical conductors, but I think I read somewhere that the speed of transmission from nerve A in brain---> to nerve receptor anywhere in the body is about 275 feet per second.
So if you had arms 273.5 feet long, it would take a second before you could tell your hand to stop waving at the people sitting at the top of a 276 foot high building, (through a window of course!)
