Factoid number two

from Improbable research: They suggest this sentence as an icebreaker at parties:

“The Sharkey is a Vertisol and can be classified as a member of the very-fine, smectitic, thermic Chromic Epiaquerts.”

now you know.

This explanation of the sharkey series doesn't help:

SHARKEY SERIES

TAXONOMIC CLASS: Very-fine, smectitic, thermic Chromic Epiaquerts

well, that makes everything clear.
