Uncopyrightable is the longest word in english that does not repeat letters.

"Stewardesses" is the longest word typed with only the left hand.

TYPEWRITER is the longest word that can be made using the letters only on one row of the keyboard.

The sentence "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog."
uses every letter in the alphabet.




Will whore again later with more facts.

Did you know that the first President of the United States was John Hanson? George Washington was the first President under the Constitution, but in reality he was the 9th President since the Declaration of Independence. The First eight Presidents under the Articles of Confederation were:
John Hanson (1781-82), Elias Boudinot (1782-83), Thomas Mifflin (1783-84), Richard Henry Lee (1784-85), John Hancock (1785-86), Nathan Gorman (1786-87), Arthur St. Clair (1787-88), and Cyrus Griffin (1788-89)
