29 August 1999 - Goethe’s birthday

< yesterday -- tomorrow >

I’m curious how y’all celebrated Goethe’s 250th birthday yesterday. Who made an important scientific discovery? Raise your hands... good. Who wrote a beautiful love poem to an older married woman? That’s good. Now, who made a pact with the devil?
