Good: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI'm not a fan of trivia books that simply print hundreds (or thousands) of one-line facts, like: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe deepest spot on the ocean floor is known as Challenger Deep, which is 36,307 feet below the ocean's surface.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYAWN.
