It's not stated in this article, but I well remember when the winning design was chosen that some objected to the fact that the designer is of Asian descent.

Maya Lin went on to design the Civil Rights Memorial in Montgomery, Alabama a few years later.

Oh yeah! I recall that when the comic was first published, someone from the Institute raised a real ruckus because he considered it slander or something. Then Goodall herself found out about it and assured everyone that she was flattered and loved the joke.

A few years ago they set the happiness level at $50,000. Inflation, I guess. Below that, you have stress about money. Above that, more doesn't make any difference. I've always been happy with much less. If I ever reached the comfort level, I might be spoiled.
