(More of a test to see if I'm still subscribed; a long story - see TUHS 
for more details.)

Sir Maurice Wilkes FRS FREng was born on this day in 1913; he was involved 
with EDSAC, microprogramming, etc.

Now, if I'm still subscribed then this will appear; if it has gone 
post-only for me (as TUHS has) then it won't come back to me, and if I'm 
no longer subscribed then it should bounce with an URL...

Maybe its a matter of electronic delay. Like with old tube
televisions, a good bang on top and all works again ... mostly :-)

I finally bought a (used) copy of his technical autobiography and it is 
only 12 down my reading stack. #6-)
