My program had it's prime boot-up in 1971.
That was a good year.
It crashed several times, rendering my body at an age of 57, and my mind undefinable.
Well, I started getting grey hair at the age of 29, so there must have been a global time-warp or something at that time. Didn't they still do those nuclear bomb tests in the atmosphere back then? I read the memoirs of the Russian H-bomb architect, Nobel peace prize winner Andrei Saharov, and he said that he started advocating a stop to those tests after he happened to calculate, that each bigger test killed about 100 000 people all around the world. At their first test in the USSR, they only accidentally noticed the night before the explosion, that there were 50 000 people living close downwind from the explosion place in Kazakhstan. There were of course several Generals present, so it only took a couple of days to relocate those people. -- Jussi Salmi http://staff.cs.utu.fi/~jussalmi/
