| As I browsed through the image stream at flickr, I saw this neat shot, which in turn reminded me of a sight I had to spend a half hour trying to track down. As I recall, when I visited the Cathedral in Cologne while on a faculty tour of Germany, I found myself wandering around the courtyard, some of the paving-stones of which had been inscribed with various messages. I had been in Germany a day and a half and was getting acclimated to seeing the world in German, when at my feet was a stone that read, “This might be a site of historic significance.” I couldn’t find any reference to it on Google, though, more's the pity. Maybe I just imagined it. |
