I had heard of "Helen", and I heard of "the face that launched a thousand
ships". But I didn't know it was Helen that had the face that launched the
thousand ships. I had never heard of the term "millihelen" prior to Rick's
post. Many jokes like this depend on a word having a double meaning. So I wasn't
getting it. Now I get it. Thank-you everyone.
