Why can't we decide if tomatoes are fruits or vegetables? It looks like a vegetable, but it's classified as a fruit. Or is it the other way around? The tomato is technically a fruit since it protects and contains the seeds of its plant, but according to a Supreme Court ruling, is is classified as a vegetable. Why? The Tariff Act of March 3, 1883 required a tax to be paid on imported vegetables, but not fruit, and they didn't want any tomato farmers going untaxed.

#4 well, moving water itself also has a soothing effect. a relaxed brain tends to think more creatively.
#7 that's a pretty darn cool factoid. guess i'll have to research to determine if true.
#8 some human-engineered fruits do not contain seeds, so a better way to understand the botanical term is "fruit is the product of a fertilised flower."
