title: [In the Senate, the clamour in the corridors does not always rhyme with history].
abstract: After a visit to the Senate, I was informed that, apparently, the backs of some of the chairs were decorated with a medical caduceus with a most political connotation! After a thorough inquiry with the guardian of this honourable establishment, it proved that this caduceus was the symbol of prudence and truth with the symbol of justice and peace. Yet my guide, a senator by profession was sincere. But this old Latin saying could certainly serve hime as an excuse: Errare humanum est.
