a ridiculous question based on ridiculousness

Sep 26, 2009 11:42

I submitted my online application to one of my first-choice grad schools a couple of days ago, and only now realized that it somehow does not contain my SOP.  Has anyone ever done this?  If so, what's protocol?  Do you email it to them?  Mail it?  If either of these, who to?  Who invented liquid soap and why?  Questions proliferate.  Help.

snafu, sop

You should contact the graduate program and ask them what to do.

"William Shepphard first patented liquid soap on August 22, 1865. In 1980, the Minnetonka Corporation introduced the first modern liquid soap called SOFT SOAP brand liquid soap. Minnetonka cornered the liquid soap market by buying up the entire supply of the plastic pumps needed for the liquid soap dispensers. In 1987, the Colgate Company acquired the liquid soap business from Minnetonka."

No idea why. Perhaps because non-liquid soap was too non-liquidy?

Thanks for sharing :-) Although I've never wondered about the origins of liquid soap before, I love little bits of trivia like this.
