Norbert Wiener (feedback control theory, cybernetics, AI) and Claude Shannon (binary logic, information theory, cryptography) probably did more to bring about the information age than anybody else - yet most people have never heard of them. I first read their classic books back in the 1970's, yet this is the first time I'd heard them speak. Amazing.

I used to love near the old Wyman-Gordon plant in North Grafton,MA. The place was huge!! It closed years ago and it’s a shame that it sat rotting away for years.
