Of course, how many times have you used a "solidus" in polite letter writing? 🙄
In May 2005, the Greek inventor Panagiotis Verdes constructed a 6×6×6 Rubik's Cube; on May 23, 2006, Frank Morris, a world champion Rubik's Cube solver, tested this version. He had previously solved the 3×3×3 in 15 seconds, the 4×4×4 in 1 minute and 10 seconds, and the 5×5×5 in 1 minute and 46.1 seconds. The 6×6×6 took him 5 minutes and 37 seconds to solve. Morris himself thanked the inventor for making it and purportedly stated that the bigger the Cube is, the greater the pleasure. In July 2006, Mr. Verdes successfully constructed the 7×7×7 cube; on October 27, 2006, a video of Morris testing the cube was released. He solved this cube in 6 minutes and 29.31 seconds. Videos of these tests can be viewed at http://www.olympicube.com.
Another uninteresting cocktail ban:
"May 17, 1974: Glenda Kemp, South Africa's teacher-turned-stripper, has offered to entertain the British Lions to "something special" in Cape Town because of the cocktail ban imposed on local British diplomats by their government The offer of a "bare-all" show was enthusiastically received by the team."
