Interesting (at least to me)
Who knew John Rambo went to the Supreme Court? In the book, he died, ruining sequel possibilities. Ah trivia. I was reading a book about the naval war in the Civil War and saw in passing a topical reference to a "holocaust" as in the lesser "calamity" implications of the term. Way back, I read "fetus" (or foetus) as applied to government back in the late 18th Century in the sense of "undeveloped." Etymology is pretty interesting.
