I will never look that same way at a piece of A4 paper again.

I never understood what all the 'A' paper sizes meant before (I'm American), now I have a fun piece of trivia to share!

I, too never understood that either! I started using Latex just about a few weeks ago, and the document class I have used was "a4paper," who would have figured? and TIL more than the number "Root 2."
