Crap. There are a lot more than 57. I think there are only two different types though.

Heinz has 57 varieties, but we have a ton more sweat glands.

Crap.

Well, FoCers, life happens -- or in my case, work happens. :-) So here I am late again!

Okay, current pondering relates to. . .

Does the human body have 57 sweat glands?

Well, since we all LIVE in human bodies, this seems like a pretty nonsensical question to me. However, two of you said FACT: Llkookaid said just to be different and Twiggyish who broke out in a paranoid sweat thinking it was a trick question. :-)

The Calendar Chafers have this to say:

It's CRAP! The human body has over 2 million sweat glands. If subjected to heavy exertion, a human can produce up to 3 gallons of sweat in 24 hours. Sweat is basically odorless, but when it comes in contact with bacteria on the skin, a foul odor is emitted. Those bacterial fumes compel Americans to buy about $750 million worth of antiperspirants and deoderants every year."

Now, do any of you remember the Road Rules/Real World Challenge where they had to collect sweat off each other to fill a container to a certain point? GROSS? You betcha! But now you know why it was possible. :-)

Okay, so let's move on to today's question.

Jupiter is the fastest-rotating planet in our solar system.

FACT or CRAP? You decide!

Are we talking about rotating around its axis, or around the sun?

Crap either way

Planets rotate on their axis, but orbit around the sun.

I say crap as I think the larger the planet, the slower the rotation, thus, the longer the day.

From my vast knowledge of the solar system, which basically means I took a science class 30 years ago in high school I have to say it is fact.

I think if you compare by size you'll find that Jupiter may indeed be faster. I'll say Fact.

i think it's a fact. i seem to remember seeing some NASA video from Voyager as it passed and that think looked like it was spinning faster than a top. but, then again that may have been time-laspsed photography sped up. hmmmmmm

Boy Ophiliasgrandma, you are right. We do "orbit" the sun.

Yeah, I'll go for fact, just because. (I think I might be wrong)
