[edit] Constructivism

I wonder if the link to constructionism was an error that should have pointed instead to constructivism (pedagogical)? Michael Hardy 20:27, 18 Oct 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Accident in Hanoi

When he was hit by a motorbike in Hanoi on 5dec06, while crossing the street, he was there studying their "notoriously chaotic traffic" -- seems that the article should mention that.

[edit] Early life
