Mexico City is technically an artificial island. It was built by filling up a lake with dirt to create an island, and then making a city on top of that. The Spaniards then built a city on top of that city.
This is why the earthquakes are so severe, because the soil is basically the shlurpy stuff at the bottom of a lake.

It is well enough that people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning.

#13 the first bikini also had newspaper headlines printed on it, to get even more attention. An exotic dancer or prostitute had to present it, because no model would do it
