In reply to: judi - Never seeing Grace Hopper in person is one of my life's regrets 's message, "Chief, I'm going to look up that author. Mysteries + NerdStuff = a great read for me. LOL I LOVE Grace Hopper. Here's a video where she's interviewed by Letterman and does her 'nanosecond' demonstration. Click here for the Letterman interview She's a real female role model. Click here for a brief bio on Grace including finding a real bug in the first computer" on 11:18:46 10/12/07 Fri
