While I was in Marseille, France last week, I passed upon what looked like a Greek statue - I was surprised to see it was a Greek man name Pytheas - now, this goes to show you that we all have our ingnorant spots - my first thought was to mistakenly wonder why the inventor of the Pythagorean Theorem was famous in Marseille - and then my mental stabilizer kicked in and I realized it wasn't a statue of Pythagoras, but Pytheas and that I knew nothing about him.
