Source text - English - Does the name Stewart Jones mean anything to you by chance?
- Aaah! One of the brightest, most idealistic intellects to have graced our University! Stewart Jones. I remember speaking to him once. I was still a student at the time. He just stared at me lost in thought for a while. He scarcely ever said a word. But how can one forget him!
- Idealistic? I'll grant you that! But bright? Don't go too far. He was completely incapable of passing any exams. All he ever did was sit in on lessons and not many of them either. Paleontology mainly. He had an unhealthy passion for mammoths, which matched the state of his intellect perfectly. That is to say, prehistoric.
Translation - French - A tout hasard, le nom Stewart Jones vous dit-il quelque chose?
- Aaah! L'un des plus brillants et idéalistes esprits à avoir honoré notre université! Stewart Jones. Je me souviens lui avoir parlé une fois. J'étais encore un étudiant à l'époque. Il m'a simplement fixé du regard pendant quelque instants, perdu dans ses pensées. Il ne parlait quasiment pas. Mais comment l'oublier!
- Idéaliste? Je vous l'accorde! Mais brillant? N'allez pas trop loin. Il était complètement incapable de réussir un examen. Tout ce qu'il faisait, c'était s'asseoir en cours, ce qui n'était pas fréquent par ailleurs. Les cours de paléontologie surtout. Il avait une passion maladive pour les mammouths, qui l'égalaient parfaitement sur le plan de l'intelligence, à savoir préhistorique.
