Tonight I have learned (from watching University Challenge) that Ludwig Wittgenstein once threatened Karl Popper with a poker during an argument about the fundamental nature of morality. Best. Fact. Ever.
A quick interent search and it turns out the story may or not be true, but that Bertrand Russell was definitely in the audience. Laughing*.

* I made that bit up. But he definitely was there.
