Subject: (External):Re: Grace didn't coin the term "bug"?

The association of bugs with computers may go back to the Mark I (I think it 
was) relay computer at Harvard.  An error was traced to a moth between two 
relay contacts.

In the Computer History Museum in Mountain View CA there's a copy of the 
logbook page with the moth pasted in place.  The display is near other early 
computers like the Atanasoff=Berry machine, the Johnniac, a German Enigma and 
examples of Konrad Zuse's work.  If you're in Silicon Valley, I urge you to 
visit; more info at computerhistory.org .
