Hey, her birthday is coming up soon. I didn't get to see all 100 things, but I hope national parks are listed. Thanks John Muir and Teddy Roosevelt...

Happy and safe 4th!

they didn't even get Moore's Law correct. way to go CNN - what a joke of a news org. The correct time period is 18 months not 12.

on the plus side, they did list Steven Colbert


everyone who has taken their first class of EE (most commonly Assembly Language) knows about Moore's Law.

here is the wiki summary for everyone else.

Moore's law is the observation that over the history of computing hardware, the number of transistors on integrated circuits doubles approximately every two years. The period often quoted as "18 months" is due to Intel executive David House, who predicted that period for a doubling in chip performance (being a combination of the effect of more transistors and their being faster)

It was a good/fun list....with the exception of #30. I could think of a 1000 other things long before 'that'!
