OLL LEWIS: Yesterday's News Today

http://cryptozoologynews.blogspot.com/

On this day in 1787 Paul 'Bus Stop' Fitch Jr designed the world's largest set of nested tables by adding a fourth table to encompass the existing three. It is not known if he secured the financial backing to physically construct any of his patented diagrams but the Science Museum in London made a replica of the 4 nest table out of string, plasticine and concrete and proved that it could, in theory, have worked. Fitch is well known for his inventive foresight having invented the bus stop long before the bus existed. Wells borough council bought 10,000 of the stops but sadly only 4 were ever made after supply issues forced Fitch to make them out of discarded elastic bands. Fitch was executed soon after the construction of the 4th bus stop when he was caught following a postman to collect up any elastic bands he dropped, which was at the time a capital offence.
