    很早就识高锟

    小学毕业的时候,我爸的学生送我一本《阶梯少儿百科全书》,这书很厚啊,配图也很有意思,不是国内那种很难看又拿腔拿调的插画,当时买不起那种四本装的少儿百科,大家不知道还记得不记得。不过这书确实也有很大的问题,因为我觉得它有些地图有些奇怪,譬如中国地图的底色和绘画方式和其他国家很不一样。长大才知道这是所谓的太监版,说好听点就是整容版,人家原版可能在领土主权上犯错了,而翻译者显然比某些不负责任的编辑要用点心,可惜他们无法整容到原作品的水准,竟然随便拿了现成地图,就看着太假了。
    所以后来基本不进口百科全书,因为此类错误难以避免了。或者不翻译出版,因为懂的人要么出去了,要么在国内没有什么影响力,当然后者很少发生。
    这次再次拿出这本书是因为最近的新闻,又一个“中国人”获奖了,不过国籍不明,基本上应该是英国国籍。
    又云港首曾荫权称高君是香港的骄傲,难道是中国香港籍?心情那个复杂啊。HK人当然就是中国人呢!
    这可惜,媒体总喜欢给香港人加括号(中国香港),何必呢,既然一国何必表明地域,搞得许多明星被优才之后都觉得自己不是中国人了。
    废话不说,按说高锟这个名字的重合可能性不大,香港中文大学前校长就更不可能了。
    好吧,这本书的序言里那个说着我童年时代不解的话“儿童的恩物”那个很gay相的中大校长高锟就是2009年诺贝尔物理学奖得主。
    那个长着我童年时代讨厌的猥琐脸的老男人...我小学里面再有想象力也无法想到会有这一天,而且俺当时还认为中文大学没有理科......
    好吧,弄了半天还是上海人。
