Title: That's going to be a lot of cake.
Post by: Devil 505 on October 10, 2015, 03:01:23 PM: I want to wish a happy birthday to the descendants of Genghis Kahn. How do I know that today is your birthday? Because every day is your birthday.

With over 16 million direct descendants living today, every day is the birthday of 43,000 of them.

For example, ol' Temujin, by his own actions, led to some very local, very dramatic DE-population events. ;)

Snail, about that photo of The Duke... did you know that John Wayne's film "The Conqueror" was filmed downwind of a nuclear weapon test site? Many of the cast and crew later died of oddball cancers. See this link. (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/film/the-conqueror/making-of-movie-that-killed-john-wayne/)

Post by: Devil 505 on October 11, 2015, 01:28:48 AM: It's also why the average man that lived at the time of Genghis Khan has only about 400 descendants today.
