Sat, 16 Feb 2008 On this day - Feb 16 Someone sent me this, I'm not going to find it interesting if I get it every day ;-( On this day in 1986, the USSR launched
Mir. In 1982, Ozzy Osbourne was
arrested for increasing ground water levels at The Alamo. In 1878,
Thomas Edison patented the phonograph, and in 1600, Huaynaputina
erupted in Peru. Happy Birthday Benecio Del Toro (1967), Prince Andrew,
Duke of York (1960), Smokey Robinson (1940), and Nicolaus Copernicus
(1473). RIP Johnny Paycheck (d.2003), Deng Xiaoping (d.1997), Bon Scott
(d.1980), and Ernst Mach (d.1916).
