Magere Hein 1,397 Posted November 14, 2011 Today in 1716 in Hannover German philosopher, mathematician, lawyer and polymath of a kind rarely seen since, Gottfried Leibniz died, aged 70. He's probably best known for his invention of calculus, independently from and at the same time as Isaac Newton. Those two learned men struggled for years over priority. Must've been fun in those wigs. regards, Hein Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DevonDeathTrip 2,288 Posted November 15, 2011 (edited) On this day in 1706 Tsangyang Gyatso, the sixth Dalai Lama died in mysterious circumstances. He didn't take to the monastic lifestyle expected of him and instead chose to live in a tent where he spent his days drinking, entertaining ladies and singing songs.
