The Fifth Trivial Pursuit and Fact or Fiction catch up thread
#62
:thumbs:

Introduced in 1914, the classic construction toy was created by inventors Charles H. Pajeau and Robert Pettit after they saw children entertain themselves by building structures using pencils and empty spools of thread. Their final product was based on Pythagorean priniciples, which meant that a triangle made from sticks and spools could become the side of a pyramid.

What was the name of the title charcter in F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby before he reinvented himself as Jay Gatsby?
