    Things we thought everyone knew

    During a very enjoyable MATS parking lot gathering a number of things came up that brought out blank looks and slapped foreheads in the group. :eek: It was strongly suggested that we post our duhhhs, because we don't all know the same things. Since it seems I'm first to my laptop, I'll start...
