Keeping a 40-percent-charged laptop in the fridge for an extended time will slow down a battery's aging process, and extend its life expectancy.

You shouldn't, because it's wrong. You're putting an electrical device into a high moisture environment and expecting it to last LONGER? Maybe this was true 20 years ago (or 50 years ago, when the author did his/her research), but it's bad advice with modern batteries.

Film is different, you can store your film in a freezer (and should, if you want it to last a long time). The insulation of the freezer protects the film from low level exposure accumulating and ruining the film, and the cold keeps the chemicals in place. Except for polaroid, don't think you're supposed to freeze those.

FACT

THE average African elephant, the largest land creature on earth, lives up to 70 years; the Asian elephant only lives up to 60 years.
Memorable mammals.

Skateboarding injuries cause more trips to the ER than any other leisure-time sport.
