Why we're special

I bet you don't have a mug emblazoned with the mug of Charles Babbage, Computing Pioneer. Don't be jealous. No really, it's very unbecoming. I know you're initial reaction is to smash the computer in a fit of rage and jealousy. Don't. Computers are very expensive. I'm sure Charles Babbage himself would tell you this.

Did you know he created the Difference Engine, the first automatic calculator? He also planned the Analytical Engine, the first programmable calculating mechanism. He even foresaw numerical analysis based on machine computation.

Of course you didn't know this, you don't have the mug.

"Where can I get one of these sexy mugs?"
I hear ya, I hear ya, but unfortunately you can't. You have to be a member of some sort of elite nerd computer club.

Sorry! Don't cry.
