Floating in factoids.

Today's fun fact: Thames is the oldest place name in Britain, originally called Tamesis or Tamesa. The derivation of the name of London is not known for certain, but it is also a pretty darn old place name; one theory says that it is a Celtic place-name derived from a Celticized river-name. ¤
