Да, неплохие записки. Прочитал пока только часть.

Кстати, меня всегда удивляло, что создателей оружия (то есть, средств для убийства себе подобных) никогда не мучает совесть. Меня бы, правда, на их месте тоже бы совесть не мучала...

Вот родственница Винчестера себя плохо чувствовала.

Sarah felt that her family was cursed, and sought out spiritualists to determine what she should do. A medium told Sarah that the Winchester family was cursed by the spirits of all the people who had been killed by the Winchester rifle, and that she should move west and build a house for herself and the spirits. The medium also told Sarah that should construction ever stop on the house that she would die.

n 1884 Sarah moved to California and purchased a six room farm house under construction, which belonged to a Dr. Caldwell, on 162 acres (0.7 km²) of land in what is now San Jose. She began immediately spending her $20 million inheritance on renovating the house, with work continuing 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year for the next 38 years. Construction only stopped on the Winchester Mystery House upon her death in 1922, when the workers immediately stopped building, leaving nails hammered in part way.
