Quotation of the Day for July 18, 2013"Man's population and gross product are increasing at a considerable rate, but the complexity of his problems grows still faster, and the urgency with which solutions must be found becomes steadily greater in response to the increased rate of activity and the increasingly global nature of that activity. Augmenting man's intellect, in the sense defined above, would warrant full pursuit by an enlightened society if there could be shown a reasonable approach and some plausible benefits." - Douglas Engelbart, computer pioneer, writing in 1962. Engelbart died on July 2, 2013. Submitted by: Terry Labach Jul. 4, 2013  |
