31. ENTERTAINMENT
 In the original ending, the X killed Y in the movie Z.
The Censor Board did not agree with this ending,
saying that its vigilante aspect undermined the
rule of law and could adversely influence naive
young minds. So, a new ending was created that
showed the police running in at the last moment,
arresting Y, and specifically telling the X that only
the law has the right to punish criminals. The
original ending was restored in the 204-minute
director's cut.

34. SCI-TECH
 The quote "logarithmic plots are a device of the devil" is
attributed to X.
 X invented an instrument generally consisting of a
constantly unwinding roll of paper, anchored to a fixed
place, and a pendulum or magnet suspended with a
marking device above the roll – to record even a sensitive
motion. X chose to use the term "magnitude" to describe
the quantity being measured because of his early interest in
astronomy; stargazers use the word to describe the
brightness of stars. Gutenberg suggested that the scale be
logarithmic, so that a 7 would be ten times stronger than a
6, a hundred times stronger than a 5, and a thousand times
stronger than a 4.
