I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

What's wrong with statues of an economist?
To sleep, perchance to dream. But in that sleep of death, what dreams may come?

Boulevard Lénine in close suburbs of Paris, i.e Ivry-sur-Seine. :frog:

Red suburb turned green however, in the meantime (not écolo though).
