On NRO yesterday Jay Nordlinger mentioned that in past years at Davos, he had run into Admiral Grace Hopper. Admiral Hopper was the first female Admiral. I met her quite a few years ago at some event.
Grace Hopper was the person who first called a computer glitch a "bug." Story was that at one of the original room sized computers at the Pentagon the staff had a porblem. Crawling around back in the machine, they discovered a moth had gotten into machine.
From then on, any problem was a "bug."
