Lorem Ipsum: History and Background
From www.lipsum.com: "Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum."

Web designers sometimes like to use Latin as a space filler (see above). I kind of like this recent botanical description of a proposed grouping of manzanitas (genus Arctostaphylos). I have no idea why this appears in a book published in the year 2000.
