C'est mardi le sept décembre



J'ai réinventé le passé pour voir la beauté de l'avenir.
I reinvented the past to see the beauty of the future.
Louis ARAGON, Le Fou d'Elsa

Trivia: The Eiffel Tower, designed by Gustav Eiffel, was made for a 1889 event and wasn’t all that popular with Parisiens at the time, even though it was then the tallest structure in the world. It was due to be torn in 1909, but it was saved as it made an ideal spot to put TV and radio antennas on top of. What was the event it was originally made for?

Hier: What is that strange museum?
