Makes sense. I didn't intend the parenthetical comment about the name
snarkily -- at a glance I gave high probability of making sense, was
just too tired to evaluate last night.

Anyway, the Beethoven quote is evocative and appropriate. If there's
an acceptable English source (I see the German book you link to) it
would be neat to have it in
https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Ludwig_van_Beethoven

A bit late to the game, but I just blogged about the project at
http://gondwanaland.com/mlog/2011/12/15/original-research-pedia/ ...
corrections welcome, and I would like to help if there's some way I
can.
