It doesn't end at Wikipedia, but too often I find I'm in the habit of finding one source for the information I want and not digging further.
The Internet Archive is a site "with the purpose of offering permanent access for researchers, historians, and scholars to historical collections that exist in digital format.". It kind of recalls the ideals of the internet, doesn't it? Link here: http://www.archive.org/index.php

This is a rather interesting flash video/animation that seeks to explain those dimensions above 4, specifically all the way up to 10.

Somedays thinking above 2 is tough enough. On that note, perhaps follow this link to learn a little about the classic novel "Flatland" - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flatland.

There is something about people vanishing that is unnerving - Murder is one thing, but to disappear without a trace, well, that's quite another. Here are 2 wikipedia links - the first an article on unexplained disappearances, the second a list of people who have "mysteriously" disappeared . And, to show that such mysteries often happen closer to home, and more often than we'd like, here's a link to the RCMP Alberta Website for missing people. Many of them suggest obvious solutions, but there are a few that seem to defy any formulaic solutions. . .And, perhaps most chilling, for almost every missing person listed there is someone who knows what became of them. . .
