While driving to work this morning, I was listening to my local NPR (National Public Radio) station. I caught the tail end of Morning Edition's story:

A 19th-Century Mathematician Finally Proves Himself
<http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=121206408>.

I then went to the The Babbage Engine page, at the Computer History Museum site: <http://www.computerhistory.org/babbage/>, which is where the video comes from.

I found all this very interesting and hope that you do too.
