No man should know the exact date of his death. But when you have access to an electric network 300 years in the future, a network which contains extensive articles on your life and death, it's hard not to peek. In nine days, I will feel a pain in my left leg, a leg which will develop...

Sad to see you go, Sire.
I created a Youtube channel with "educational videos for aliens" where I pretend to be an extraterrestrial explaining humans, earth and the human condition to aliens. The first video came out sunday. Check it out:

Mais mais maiiis... C'est la Commune, pas la Rvolution, la libert guidant le peuple ! 
I'm writing these lines on July the 14th, 1711. Seventy-eight years from today, an angry mob of thousand furious Parisians will storm a city prison defended by a fistful of old men.
