Ludwig Wittgenstein died today – 57 years ago

Philosopher and author (of “Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus”) Ludwig Josef Johann Wittgenstein was born on April 26, 1889 in Vienna, Austria-Hungary. He said, “Philosophy is like trying to open a safe with a combination lock: each little adjustment of the dials seems to achieve nothing, only when everything is in place does the door open." [So, when's it all going to be in place?]... Mr. Wittgenstein died on April 29, 1951 in Cambridge, United Kingdom.
