Actually people said "Bless you" in response to someon sneezing long before we knew that the heart stops briefly when you sneeze. It can be traced back to the sixth century AD, when many people who sneezed subsequently developed the plague. "Bless you" because a customary response to a sneeze, as it was meant to ward off the plague.
Nice list, though - very entertaining.
