Stumbled upon an old FB comment by philologist Kirill Ospovat. He wrote:

"Grandfather of mine was invited to Lubyanka [the KGB HQ] once to give lectures on Latin American literature. He did not dare to refuse, so he came and began lecturing. He started with biographies: "co-operated with the local communist party" and so on. A senior officer in the audience politely interrupted: "Lev Samoilovich, you can leave that out, this we already know".

Evidence the oral stories of Australia's First Nations might be 10,000 years old: In 1970, Lardil man Goobalathaldin (or Dick Roughsey) completed his autobiography "Moon and Rainbow" in which he recounted his ancestors' stories. Among them was a story telling of a time when the North Wellesley Islands were connected to the Australian mainland.

Something wholesome from the , very heartwarming thing said to the interviewer at the end of an interview (May 1979): "You have listened to me ramble off and you have asked me some good questions and I appreciate people like you very much. You're not just sitting back and letting the world go by."
