My entry for [LEARN & EARN - Week #5] - Steemit

How did I miss this awesome game from Hive account@matkodurko for four weeks?!
Well, I'm here now - hopefully I won't miss out again.

This initiative is simple - what have I learned recently?
Over the past week I learned:

1. That there's this awesome challenge called "Learn & Earn!"
2. How to photograph the moon!
   (Here's my result - again.)
   
3. I learned that (so far) George R. R. Martin (creator of "Game of Thrones") has over 2000 named characters in his books! It makes my currently list of around 250 characters look paltry.
4. I learned (today) that Red 40 (food dye) affects me almost as much as it affects my children - and makes me feel awful!
5. That someone I used to talk to frequently on Facebook has been gone for at least a year. :( (Need to put on my sleuth's hat and find the e-mail address somewhere.)
6. It's really hard to sit here and remember the things I learned this week (even when I discard the things that should not be shared.)

Even if you're not entering the challenge (why not?) what have you learned this week?
