The really scary thing for me, was that I actually could come up with logical answers for about half of them. For example, ATM machines in drive up locations have braille on the keys becuase it's too expensive to make special machines for drive trhough locations and the law requires braille on walk up machines.

BWL, Your list is scary too. I already knew about half of them. I have a head full of trivial information, but your list goes far beyond mere trivia.
