Did you know this?

My youngest son Luke always asks me: Did you know this?.  Being 8 years old, he does not recognize the subtlety of asking a question where a person needs information in order to be able to answer Did you know this?  I think he believes I can see what he is thinking   His typical question will be something like:  Dad, Dad, Dad (repeating a name insures instant attention) - Did you know this???  When I ask 'what' this is he talking about, he will then go into great detail about things that range from the fact that a basking shark is not a predator and weighs up to 15 tons or Bulbasaur is certain type of Pokemon with water power.
