A. Woodrow Wilson kept upwards of a pound of bat liver in an urn on his desk because it was thought at the time their strong odor may prevent lung disease.
B. Ronald Reagan once spent a week trying to build a perpetual motion machine out of vacuum cleaner parts. The device he emerged with would run for 20 minutes with just a small insurgence of electricity. He claimed it would run forever once superconducting material had been invented.
C. Thomas Jefferson not only had an illegitimate black son but is also thought to have fathered more than 17 other illegitimate children with poor white people.
D. While Harry Truman seemed to understand the serious nature of the weapon, it was later found that he described the nuclear bomb in his journal as 'another costly piece of scrap'.
E. Herbert Hoover had an extreme fear of insects and gravel in his food. He insisted on having a magnifying glass available at mealtimes so that he could examine his plate before eating anything.
