1. Nelson Mandela was the first country leader to install apologizes and forgiving of crimes as a rule to bring civil peace back in his country. What's his nick name?

   I had remarks about that point. To any who have doubts about it, I suggest you read:

   "The commission was empowered to grant amnesty to those who committed abuses during the apartheid era, as long as the crimes were politically motivated, proportionate, and there was full disclosure by the person seeking amnesty."
   and better that you watch the job: hearings of the commission were video-recorded and broadcasted. You can still find exerpts on Utube
2. Who was the first musician to make regular use of the Larsen effect (acoustic feedback) in music?
   Pete Townshend (USA, The Who)

   I could not find enough references to decide, thus both answers were considered to be good.
   note: by regular I meant, usual, extensive, musical (thanks to radiant for correction)
