Happy birthday, Nick

Nicolai Ivanovich Lobachevsky turns 214 years old today. Lookin' good.

Or, as Tom Lehrer invites us to sing:

Who made me the genius I am today?
The mathematician that others all quote?
Who's the professor that made me that way?
The greatest that ever got chalk on his coat.
One man deserves the credit,
One man deserves the blame,
And Nicolai Ivanovich Lobachevsky is his name.
Hai!
