The World's Largest Computer in 1951

[JamesU]

I can't find the city but I know you're talking about pellagra

 

[Mk]

The Prisoners are POWs right?

 

[Mk]

Pellagra is a vitamin deficiency disease caused by dietary lack of niacin and protein, not a parisite. Good guess though.

 

[Huckleberry]

Oops, I was catching up in another thread.

It isn't pellagra. They were not POW's. They were imprisoned criminals.

a hint. At the trial of Nuremburg Germany uses this incident to justify their actions in concentration camps, or at least to claim that they didn't act any differently than other nations have.

 

[JamesU]

Oh! malaria in chicago

 

[Huckleberry]

yup you got it

 

[JamesU]

Two great minds, one interest. Two important men, one invention. Two close friends, one story. What did they invent and who were they?

Most people have them

 

[Mk]

I guess its not the Brothers Grimm...

 

[Huckleberry]

I suppose its not the Wright Brothers and the airplane. Not many people own those.

 

[JamesU]

Nope, VERY common Item. I know MK and Huck have used them(as well as a lot more)

 

[Huckleberry]

Duryea brothers and the first gasoline powered automobilies.

 

[JamesU]

Sorry, nope. no cars or any automobiles. think circut city

 

[Mk]

Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak, they started Apple Computer and are credited with initiating the entry of computers into private homes.

 

[JamesU]

good job Mk!

 

[Mk]

What animal has the longest penis to body length ratio? Give an approximate ratio.

 

[Mk]

Oh, or should we use my old one I posted before I saw Huckleberry's?

In the mid-1980s a company famous for making small replicate non-flammable automobiles, manufactured a "magic" puzzle that was not a cube. Who was the inventor? Name one other famous puzzle/toy that he invented.

 

[Huckleberry]

I should have guessed the Mac reference from the killer thread.

 

[JamesU]

I think you should go to the old one...

 

[Huckleberry]

I would guess the human.

 

[Mk]

Not a human.

 

[JamesU]

hOW THE HELL ARE WE SUPPOSED TO KNOW?

 

[Mk]

Evo knows a bunch of useless trivia, so does Google and Wikipedia.

 

[JamesU]

So does Evo

 

[Huckleberry]

A barnacle, or does it have to be a mammal?

 

[Mk]

That'll due. Barnacles have the longest penis to body length ratio, its penis is 20 times its body lenght.

 

[JamesU]

I do not want to know why Mk knows this fact

 

[Mk]

Oh yes, I'm gay and I have fantasies.

 

[Mk]

Is Huckelberry giong to ask a question? Or will I or zoobyshoe do so?

 

[zoobyshoe]

The first year these came out, they cost a penny, and were black. The next year they changed the color to red because people found it easy to reuse the black ones.

 

[JamesU]

is it matches?
