Happy birthday Bertie! And happy Ï? day to everyone else!! 🙂
Happy Birthday Albert Einstein!!!!!
I have a picture of him riding a bike with a smile on his face that reminds me of childhood…I look at that picture everyday and remember what he said,
“The pursuit of truth and beauty is a sphere of activity in which we are
permitted to remain children all our lives.”
How very true this is =)
I just call emacs the RSI-Editor.
I recall that emacs was originally written in TECO.
Channels, not canals. Broken telephone effect again…
And shall I add “And thanks for the whole nuclear thing. Jeesh.”
It’s that time of year again!! Happy Birthday to one of the most important people in history (my personal opinion)
This day should be a national holiday!!
