Chain

I just learned this from a course I am editing:

Michelangelo died on the same day in 1564 that Galileo was born.

Galileo died on the same day in 1642 that Sir Isaac Newton was born

I saw a pronunciation of Rene Descartes' name in the margins and was hoping he was born the day Newton died and it would reveal a chain of

Michelangelo
Galileo
Newton
Descartes
Hume
Nietzsche
Artaud
Foucault
GG Allin
Marilyn Manson
