100 things we didn't know last year

Some highlights: An outbreak of swine flu in 1976 killed one person but a vaccine to combat it killed 25; Britain had animal welfare laws before it had child welfare laws; Married couples used to always sleep apart; There are so few redheads in Mexico they often greet each other in the street; Male life expectancy in the UK goes up by about three months every year.
