math dork

Just spent the last hour watching PBS and Terry Jones hosting "The Story of 1". It traced numbers through the ages [including the invention of "zero", which fascinates me], all the way up to binary [did you know binary was invented around 1679 by Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz??].

Loved it. A little corny, but some good British humor [humour]. Reminded me of "Donald in Mathmagic Land", another favorite.

Ahhh, I'm a dork.
