In Paris, there is some bar wher you can find sheets with the names of people who were used to have a drink here. I think, for exemple to Hemingway. I presume it is the same thing in other cities in the world, isn't it?
Even if you don't know who was the guy at the bar, before you take his place, you understand immediately that the place has a story. And that you're in the continuity of a story. You're somùewhere where it occurred something. Not nowhere. As a French conservative, and as all the conservatives of the world, whatever they are, I like this concept of memory of the places and transmission of stories and history.
In Memoriam is a very good idea.
MIA too...
