A wikiholistic view

If history teaches us anything it’s that history teaches us nothing. No. Wait. It also teaches us that Lawrence, Kansas, was founded in 1854 and that England had a king named Æthelred the Unready not once but twice, the same guy both times. He took a few months off during the winter of 1013-1014 to go into exile in Normandy but came back when Sweyn Forkbeard, whose dad was Harald Bluetooth, after whom is named a wireless technology deployed with varying degrees of success in a broad range of consumer electronics, dropped over dead. So. History teaches us nothing useful.
