1928年5月6日，蔡元培、于右任、胡適之等人發起，在徐匯公學為馬相伯慶九十壽辰。蔡元培祝辭謂中國科學發展出於宗教家，盛稱馬相伯早年提倡科學有力。
胡適對記者說 :"馬相伯先生是我們的 "國之瑰寶 " 他的一言一行 應該有一個人在他的身旁 隨時把它記下來"---此語啟發胡頌平記《胡適晚年談話錄》。
《胡適日記》：.....他們要我演說，...我提議馬先生留一部紀錄給我們，使我們知道這九十年的社會的生活的片段。
他生於一八三九*，這九十年為社會史上重要時期，更為中國史上最重要的過渡時期。
*另外資料為1840

5月6日，Sigmund Freud 1859-1939生日。凡是讀過他晚年為口腔癌奮戰的情形，無不動容。Peter Gay的Sigmund Freud傳還說20年代末，許多歐洲菁英都是諾貝爾文學獎的對手，包括Sigmund Freud、Thomas Mann等等。

對我們台灣，更有意義的是"臺灣文藝聯盟" 1934.5.6~ 1936.8在台中成立，機關雜誌《臺灣文藝》(The Taiwan-Bungei) 1934.11起15期。尚未一讀，很遺憾。

Sigmund Freud’s writings changed how we perceive human behaviour, giving insights into perhaps the original unreliable narrator – the self. Happy birthday to the founder of psychoanalysis.




Does Sigmund Freud still matter?
Psychoanalytic theory has changed a lot in the 75 years since his death, but literature still feels the Austrian’s influence, argues Jane Ciabattari.

"A Dangerous Method" portrayed Freud as a witty patriarch, siding with him against his stiff-necked protégé Carl Jung

Alexander von Humboldt—who died on May 6th 1859—had an insatiable curiosity for the natural world, a “perpetual drive” for knowledge that felt as if he was being chased by “10,000 pigs”

  F.B.I. Identifies Group Behind Pipeline Hack The attack by DarkSide, a relatively new criminal group believed to have roots in Eastern Europe, exposed the vulnerability of key U.S. infrastructure. This is how the Colonial Pipeline became a vital artery for fuel. The White House has declared a state of emergency after a cyber attack forced the shutdown of a vital U.S. pipeline.  Experts said that  gasoline prices are unlikely to be affected  if the pipeline is back to normal in the next few days. But the incident — the worst cyberattack to date on critical U.S. infrastructure — should serve as a wakeup call to companies about the vulnerabilities they face,  says The Associated Press .  【網絡安全】美國最大汽油管道被黑客攻擊 美國最大汽油和柴油管道系統的Colonial Pipeline在受到網絡攻擊後將其系統下線，令美國東部沿海主要城市加油站的成品油供應面臨威脅。Colonial Pipeline已聘請協力廠商網絡安全公司來調查並聯繫執法部門和其他聯邦機構。黑客對關鍵基礎設施的威脅一直在增長，促使白宮制訂計劃來提高公用事業及其供應商的安全性。
