Marx, in his conceit in 1865, wrote to
Leibniz – presumably the second greatest German after the Great Karl Marx – to
congratulate him on what Marx believed was his discovery of the Periodic Table.
This German buffoon did not know that Edward
Boyle, the Earl of Cork, had discovered the periodic table of elements in 1715,
a century and a half earlier.
Wild, brazen Anglo-Saxon-German conceit
which continues to this day!
