History and Quotes from ArcaMax

  ArcaMax History and Quotes for Charles
  Saturday December 27, 2003

Today is Saturday, Dec. 27, the 361st day of 2003 with four to follow.

Those born on this date include German astronomer Johannes Kepler in 1571; English engineer George Cayley, father of the science of aerodynamics, in 1773; French bacteriologist Louis Pasteur in 1822; actress Marlene Dietrich in 1901; news correspondent Cokie Roberts in 1943 (age 60); French actor Gerard Depardieu in 1948 (age 55); and former Mexican President Ernesto Zedillo Ponce de Leon in 1951 (age 52).

On this date in history:

In 1932, Radio City Music Hall opened in New York City.

In 1941, Japanese warplanes bombed Manila in the Philippines, even though it had been declared an "open city."

In 1947, the first "Howdy Doody" show, under the title "Puppet Playhouse," was telecast on NBC.

In 1968, the Apollo-8 astronauts returned to Earth after orbiting the moon 10 times, paving the way for later moon-landing missions.

In 1985, terrorists killed 20 people and wounded 110 in attacks on passengers of the Israeli airline El Al at the Rome and Vienna airports. President Reagan blamed Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi.

In 1991, a Scandinavian Airlines jet with 129 aboard crashed and broke apart after taking off from Stockholm. No one was killed.

In 1992, a U.S. jet shot down an Iraqi fighter over southern Iraq's "no-fly" zone in the first such incident since the Persian Gulf War.

In 1997, Britain's Windsor Castle was reopened to the public following restoration work. 100 rooms of the palace were damaged in a fire in 1992.

In 1998, the smallest of the Chukwu octuplets, born earlier in the month in Houston, died.

In 2001, Arab TV played a tape of fugitive terrorist leader Osama bin Laden in which he said he wanted to destroy the U.S. economy. Bin Laden looked gaunt and never used his left hand though he is left-handed.

In 2002, Chechen rebels, seeking independence from Russia, killed 52 people with two vehicle bombs at pro-Russian government offices.

A thought for the day: an anonymous saying goes, "Education is what you have left over after you have forgotten everything you have learned."

Classic Quotes

--------------------

"The most exciting phrase to hear in science, the one that heralds new discoveries, is not 'Eureka!' (I found it!) but 'That's funny ...'"

Isaac Asimov (1920 - 1992)

--------------------

"Perfect as the wing of a bird may be, it will never enable the bird to fly if unsupported by the air. Facts are the air of science. Without them a man of science can never rise."

Ivan Pavlov (1849 - 1936)

--------------------

"It is a good morning exercise for a research scientist to discard a pet hypothesis every day before breakfast. It keeps him young."

Konrad Lorenz (1903 - 1989)

--------------------

"All science is either physics or stamp collecting."

Ernest Rutherford (1871 - 1937), in J. B. Birks "Rutherford at Manchester" (1962)

--------------------

"If an elderly but distinguished scientist says that something is possible he is almost certainly right, but if he says that it is impossible he is very probably wrong."

Arthur C. Clarke (1917 - )
