  4. - In the average lifetime..... etc = interesting - There are 318,979,564,000.... etc = interesting - The average American.... etc = interesting (and too many may i say, that's almost 2 a day, or 2 every other day, certainly too much!!) - More people are killed.... etc = interesting - If one places a tiny amount.... etc = interesting All of the rest I'm afraid are boring. However, I noticed in your question you said 'which are useful'... well, to be honest, absolutely none of these are useful to me, because when am I EVER gonna use facts like these? Just something to point out. Despite saying that, I did find some of them interesting and informative.
