As many people find it aestetically better to be tall as Abraham Lincoln
than short as Napoleon Bounaparte, I suppose that when Steven Schwarz build
his wax cabinet, he will make Napoleon Bounaparte tall as Abraham Lincoln.
Bounaparte would (1) still be a model of a human being and (2) the
aestetical result would be better.

Mats Norrman, who will prefer to visit Jocelyn Wangs wax cabinet.
