I won't say what other things I believed that have since turned out to be totally incorrect. My mother was raised on a farm in Pennsylvania and set me straight one day.

Seems I need more stuff. My current misbelief is that the song with the words 'Do-op Do-op' (of which there are plenty ... :-) are actually computer songs. I like to tell people this to make them wonder which cave I spent my childhood in.
