December 1 was the 62nd Anniversary of the Taman Shud case, one of the strangest unsolved deaths ever. Man found dead on beach, cause of death not certain but probably poisoning, may have been a spy due to some evidence of attempts to conceal his identity and movements and the discovery of a code on a scrap of paper in his pocket, but also may have committed suicide over unrequited love. Grave visited periodically by unknown persons even to this day. Inspired a Stephen King novel.
