Just some more trivia on this OT day... Reading the May issue of Scientific American, and learned the first computer is attributed to Charles Babbage who in 1840 designed the "Analytical Engine," the first automatic, general purpose computing machine ever designed. His close friend and mathmetician Augusta Ada Byron Lovelace (daughter of Lord Byron, the famous Poet), is credited as writing the first computer language based on the Bernoulli numbers system. She was around 25 yrs of age... Hope I didn't bore anyone too much...I enjoyed the article and it caught my eye because I studied the Bernoulli system while doing curriculum development..Anyhow there is also a great article on tsunami's and brain cell rejuvenation...(I skipped over the one on Killer Kangaroos and other Murderous Marsupials)... Now I'm ready for a good joke! Viper where are you????
