Re: computers are older than you think

not sure what this may mean, Grz, but to me it is strangely interesting that this story managed to just find it's way into my consciousness...... for the second time in under 24 hours. Is this really nothing more than what people have been conditioned to accept as mere "coincidence" ?

Although I'm not at all a fan of past political traitors & criminals, sometimes we must use what we have available to us. In the world of profound quotes, what we have available to us is in large part a body of past telling quotes credited to various and assorted past great crooks, criminals, and perpetrators of high treason from high office.... like fdr, who is given credit for uttering the words "in this world, nothing happens by accident". The context of this, he of course is referring to things that happen in the world dominated by politics, which of course can be and frequently are things that happen across a wide spectrum of things happening.

So, what if anything do you make of this apparent coincidence or "accident" that somebody, somwehere, out there, appears to be wanting us the people to be aware of this supposed archeological find of an ancient computer? FWIW, I read your article yesterday. I enjoyed it. I left it at that. Today, that article was well removed from the forefront of my mind, so in this respect it really was coincidence that I then quickly stumbled upon this near-identical reference article posted today on the home page of the monopoly media outlet of CBS in Pittsburgh.
