    diximus de melvyn bragg
    qui interrogat
    qui decem libri
    de populi britanniae scripsi
    terras mutaverunt

    Translation:
    in the Magic Cafe
    we talked about Melvyn Bragg
    who asks
    which ten books
    written by British people
    have changed the world?

    The answer:
    ^ Newton's Principia
    ^ Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations
    ^ The Rules of Association Football
    ^ Darwin's Origin of Species
    ^ Magna Carta
    ^ Marie Stopes
    ^ Mary Wolstonecraft
    ^ Faraday on Electricity
    ^ King James Bible
    ^ Shakespeare's First Folio

    Fondest Memory: Discussing the 10 books written by British people that have changed the world in the Magic Cafe is a classic Oxonian experience, in my opinion... :-D

     Every day you learn something. Today I learned about Marie Stopes, HGV's and queues in English pubs. Cheers.

     Glad to hear that Oxford is such a great cycling city! I see you have signed up for EuroMeet 2008 in Karlsruhe, so I look forward to meeting you there.
