Владимир Ленин
We all know that Vladimir Lenin, born in 1870, was the first head of the Soviet Union.
Some of us also know that there are large deposits of green serpentine on our very own Mount Tamalpais.
We have lived knowing the above without giving these facts much thought. Suddenly we are awakened by a mind-boggling discovery. Fifty-five years after Lenin's death, I found a sculpture of his head, hewn from a block of serpentine, on the mountain. Of course, I immediately alerted the appropriate scientific and historical institutions of my find, and they are excitedly studying my discovery, even as I write. Fortunately I managed to take a picture of the sculpture before it was snatched away from me.
