A lot of you out there already “get it”: Very Little Known Facts is not just about education. It’s about a lifestyle. It embodies a certain philosophy, a “Je Nais Se Qua,” a real sang-Freud. It’s about being a cultured, sophisticated human being. The ideal VLKF reader knows how to mix drinks, drive a car made in Europe, optimize analog stereophonic equipment, roll a cigar, appreciate the weave of a fine wool suit (not to mention warp and woof) and hold court on any number of intellectual topics such as politics, anthropology, R. Buckminster Fuller and human sexuality. The VLKF philosophy is about living the Good Life: good food, good clothes, good music, and (of course) good facts. So what kind of person reads Very Little Known Facts?
- Learned to read by age 5.
- Owns property in Arizona.
- Is clean shaven.
- Knows a good melon from a bad melon.
- Rents to own.
- Ferments their own microbrew.
- Would never confuse a camel with a dromedary.
- Believes that children are our future.

Though it’s widely believed that Joan of Arc died of grief, she actually – tragically - choked on her own vomit.
Dear Alice,
Thanks for your comment! The time-honored fable of Joan of Arc is certainly a cautionary tale, one that should give each of us pause as we live our daily lives every day on this planet on which we all live, Earth. Thanks again for your comment!
This VLKF reader is actually from Wales, (the non-England if you like)and owns no property in Arizona, spends her pounds like crazy, believes children are indeed the future but that the future is not orange, and hates cats.
However, i do like little known facts, so thanks for that!
Dear anonymous,
Thanks for your comment! However, we feel compelled to point out that Wales is not in Arizona. It is actually located in Scotland. Thanks again for your comment!
