Do you enjoy learning new things daily? If you’ve read my ActiveRain results blog, you know one of the pastimes I enjoy is discovering new facts and interesting pieces of history.

I like to share intriguing stories from our local newspaper the San Jose Mercury News, as well as from favorite print and online publications including Mental Floss and Smithsonian Magazine. 

These events for today’s blog post are primarily from Wikipedia and HistoryOrb.

While interesting and intriguing, these historic events have nothing to do with my real estate business, helping families buy and sell homes in San Jose, Cupertino and Saratoga in Silicon Valley, Calif. Learning about cool new facts just adds fun and fascination to life.

Here are today’s “Three Trivia Questions About What Happened in History on February 24”.
