Hello Fritz and all, There is an earlier article in Scientific American, June 1959, pg 60 by de Solla Prince. I remember the article and will check my files to see if I still have a copy. GIF of the abstract is attached. 4 kb .gif
Now to check the new publication. I heard about new research on the radio this morning and more will be on CBC "Quirks and Quarks" program on Saturday. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Fritz Stumpges Sent: November 30, 2006 9:47 AM To: Sundial List New (E-mail) Subject: Early Astronomical 'Computer' Found Hello All, I'm sure that many of you are also hearing about this recent find. It sounds intriguing and I'm sure that we will slowly get more details as publications are made. Our community seems to be a logical source for analyzing the design, function, and hidden meanings concealed in a device like this. Has anyone had a look at the details and what are your preliminary thoughts? Fritz Stumpges http://www.nytimes.com/2006/11/30/science/30compute.html?th&emc=th
