We mourn the passing of computer pioneer Admiral Grace Hopper, author of COBOL, who is now at rest 6 nanoseconds under. [Adm. Hopper, who passed away approx. Jan 3, was known for holding up a piece of wire, one foot long, at her lectures and explaining "This is one nanosecond", that is at 3.00 x 10^8 meters per second, electricity travels one foot in one nanosecond.]
