THE FINE PRINT
We don’t know what your exact teacher said. We do know when evidence shifted, when institutions updated their guidance, and which myths have stubbornly survived in classrooms.
Your graduation year minus 12 gives us a rough K–12 window.
Facts updated during or after that window rank higher for you.
Every card links to the institution, paper, or museum behind the correction.
This is a researched conversation starter, not a claim about every school or country. “Updated in” marks a major discovery, ruling, or public correction—not the day every textbook caught up.
