It’s remarkable what one can learn from taking a look at history with a template approach. At the beginning of February 2021, I set out to discover each calendar day’s important moments in time. The stories I’ve listed mostly represent a personal interest, but some are just too weird not to mention. I hope you enjoy reading them.

Some of the amazing things I learned are documented below.
