favorovГод назад я поместил телеграфовский некролог на веселую женщину Мэрион Роттсли, где среди прочего говорилось:
One of the high points of her life came in the mid-1950s when she
lived in Spain and London with the writer Alec Waugh, who gave her a Cisitalia
sports car, now in the Metropolitan Museum in New York, and wrote about her in
his much re-printed novel Fuel for the Flame (1960).
Сегодня мне в почту (ну и на страницу в ЖЖ) упал вот такой комментарий:
Belated comment:
I only learned of Marion Wrottesley's death yesterday, Feb 2, 2007.
It is highly unlikely that the MOMA Cisitalia belonged to Marion Wrottesly, because it belonеged to me. I bought it from her in Madrid in 1959. Moreover, it did not run on jet fuel or Frenet Branca for that matter. It had a 4 cyl 1500 cc Fiat engine with a special high compression aluminium head, but was not really that powerful. The lines were beautiful, but we alterted the original frontend designh.
Marion was quite a woman that all who had the pleasure of knowing were will attest. May God bless her.

Я даже не знаю, как реагировать. Выходит, что он узнал о смерти Мэрион не из Telegraph, а, помилуй Боже, из моего ЖЖ. И комментирует их некролог так, как комментировал бы его в газете.
Написать ему что ли? Человек-то ясное дело масштабный.
А вот и машинка, о которой речь:
