Oxford University is older than the Aztec Empire.

Well duh.

The Aztec Empire was a bunch of johnny come latelies who borrowed everything from the older civilizations before them.

Cambridge University was started because towns people were fed up with the unruly Oxford students and decide to hang a couple.

Since you are FReepers, I propose you settle this like gentlemen.

Head on over there and make the trip and report back.

We’ll be setting up the side bets while you’re gone.

31 Days in October...Halloween is the 31, and so is Nevada Statehood Day.
Maybe you could squeeze it into the middle, somewhere.
