Important day for geeks

Post by PurpleGeezer on Mon Jan 12, 2009 6:39 pm

Since I am one, I though I'd point out a couple of milestones.

The HAL 9000 computer was born on this day in 1997, according to the movie "2001, a Space Odyssey"

This month is also the five year anniversary of the Mars Rovers, a program that was only scheduled to last for 30 days.

You can now go back to whatever you were doing.....

Kubrick is still one of my all time favorite directors. For old time's sake:
