I imagine the Feminists will now push for Margaret to get the Presidential Medal of Honor and have a statue placed at the door of all public schools in America... right!? Meanwhile the rest of us unknown white male engineer/scientists, can continue to live, in the dark. Got it.

It's so good you've pointed this out. It's high time our society got it's collective head around the real victims of inequality and indifference: middle-class, white, male proffessionals.

Stumbled across this recently whilst trying to find an interview with Jonah Nolan ( for which I am still searching) about the surveillance state:

Podcast: Grace Hopper Led America into the Information Age

October 16, 2009


Author Kurt Beyer describes the life and legacy of inventor and computer programmer Grace Murray Hopper.


Kurt Beyer is the author of Grace Hopper and the Invention of the Information Age. In this podcast, Beyer goes beyond the myth to find the real Grace Hopper, a US Naval officer, computer scientist, and inventor who was at the forefront of the post-WWII computer revolution.

Grace Hopper and the Invention of the Information Age is part of the Lemelson Center Studies in Invention and Innovation from MIT Press.

Really interesting podcast.

Pissing contests aside, Ms. Hamilton went to Earlham, where my brother went and then got his masters on their dime. My bro is wicked smart, as are many of the grads of that college. Nice to see this.

Velocity? I got some powerful force behind it sometimes. No shame in shotgunning the problem.
