The padded rugby team was victorious today, one of hopefully many victories this season. (At least we're worried now about making sure the offense makes things work. The defense looked very solid today.) And so everything's in order, and tomorrow, I'll probably be in Windsor for much of the day - the first time I've been out of the country in my life. Took me long enough.

Anyway, only one link tonight.

Applying good computer principles to humanity - some groups are trying to figure out the logistics of making a backup on the moon of the human race. It sounds like an interesting idea. Although, one would have to figure out how to trigger the backup if we eliminated ourselves.

Going to bed now, as things are likely to be getting very awake very early in the morning. But I hope they're lots of fun, too.

In 1794, after the American Revolution, the settlement of Sandwich was founded. It was later renamed to Windsor, after the town in Berkshire, England.

Does that help at all? Also intersting/important to note is that many places in both the States and Canada are named after British people & places simply because both countries were/are British territories. For example, I grew up in East Windsor, NJ (named after the Royal family). My mom lives in Lancaster (the red rose city) and grew up in York, PA (the white rose city) so named for the House of York/House of Lancaster/War of the Roses.
