> What was the origination of the name "WD-40"?
"One could say that they were a little slow and meticulous, because it
took them 40 attempts to get the water displacing formula worked out.
But they must have been really good, because the original secret formula
for WD-40 -- which stands for Water Displacement perfected on the 40th
try -- is still in use today."

> Where was WD-40 invented?
"WD-40 was invented in a small lab in San Diego, California in 1953 when
a fledgling company called Rocket Chemical Company and its staff of
three set out to create a line of rust-prevention solvents and
degreasers for use in the aerospace industry."

"One only needs two tools in life: WD-40 to make things go, and duct
tape to make them stop. " -G. Weilacher"

Oh! A perfect score.
You may now pick your prize:
Marry me.
Spend a night playing nekkid Twister with Rael, bring your own nubile chile
maidens.
Go dig granite at Byron's
Tangle with Pam and the Thunderpuppies
Poke a sharp stick in your eye
(Of all of the choices, you'd be better off taking the last one!)
