Thanks to Blandus Rex for pointing out that today was important for other reasons. On this day in 1517, Martin Luther posted his 95 Theses to the door of the church at Wittenberg and changed the course of history.
It seems that Haloween has seen some interesting events- according to the
History Channel this was also the day that Stalins body was removed from Lenins tomb and the day Houdini died “Houdini had been talking to a group of students after a lecture in Montreal when he commented on the strength of his stomach muscles and their ability to withstand hard blows. Suddenly, one of the students punched Houdini twice in the stomach. The magician hadn’t had time to prepare, and the blows ruptured his appendix. “
