Think-tank

A team of five TU students have booked a place in the final of Energy Flashback 2050. On June 23, the TU team will travel to Nuon’s headquarters in Amsterdam to compete in the final against a team from Groningen University. The Energy Flashback competion involves the students being locked in a think-tank for 36 hours. Nuon shows the students a vision of an ideal future, and the students must then determine which social, political, economic and technological developments are needed to create this ideal future.

Stinkfoot man

A 39-year-old Rotterdammer, Teunis T., better known as the ‘stinkfoot man’, had his appeal rejected by the High Court. In April 2003, a Den Haag court fined T. 250 euros. The reason for the fine was the public disturbance caused by the terrible smell of T’s feet when he took his shoes off in the TU library. Because he kept taking his shoes off, the TU bared T. from entering the library in 2002. This didn’t stop T. from entering and taking his shoes off in other public places, however. During the trial, police and judges had to smell T’s feet as well, because T. took his shoes off in the courtroom. T. believes that taking his shoes off is a basic human right, regardless of the smell. Having lost his appeal, T. now will appeal to the European Court of Justice, which was set up to rule on serious abuses of human rights.
