Fun fact: Leonardo da Vinci studied the human anatomy only to paint it as perfectly as possible!

Danny,
That's not 100% accurate. He, and many before him dating back to Polykleitos of Classical Greece, studied the the aspects of proportion in nature (and the human body) to find the most perfect balance for art, architecture, and engineering.
The Vitruvian Man was an attempt to correct the inaccuracies of the calculations of the ancient Roman architect Vitruvius.
The calculations were used to create paintings and sculptures of the "perfect" human form, but not solely for that purpose.

Clo,
I think you split the hair too fine. "Only" was an indirect reference to enhance the skill, not an imperative sigular aspect.

#13 Not even close. It's the fifth highest. The first is the U.S .Constitution, and The Book of Mormon (for some effing reason) is number three. The other two are some old Chinese manuscripts that no one's ever heard of except for people who study such things for a living.

As soon as uoubreference ANY news agency that is mainstream, pedjudice, and proven as an unreliable source (just like FOX and the other ones) no one will belive you. (Even if it was partly true).
