					<description><![CDATA[Somehow, I have a very faint suspicion that Franco  cannot grasp the hell of a difference between rare musical talent and theatrical idiocy.  

It may be that is the reason why he tries to compare himself to - and claim himself better than - Joseph Calleja. 

Dear Franco, try - at least - to take a close look at the world of classical/operatic music before penning your imagined comparisons.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Franco Debono keeps making a fuss about skipping a year of sixth form. He misses the irony.

If what Franco says about Joseph Calleja is correct, Joseph skipped sixth form and university but still got his degree.

Looks like Austin isn&#039;t the only topper student to Franco.]]></description>

Michael Faraday, scientist

Mary Anning, discovered many species of dinosaurs
Donald Harden, cracked the Zodiac Killer&#039;s code and
Gregor Mendel who discovered how genetics work
