Dear All,

I was waiting for someone else to mention this, but I understood that there 
was a brain bank in Moscow.  My recollection was that it included the 
brains of Lenin and other notables from the Soviet era.  I also seem to 
recall correspondence a couple of years ago about the possibility of 
getting funding for publishing a translation of the study of Lenin's brain 
(possibly even completing the study).  Any comments Sam or Stan?

Cheers,
