    H is the eighth letter of the Latin alphabet. Its name in English is aitch.

    God damn it! The correct spelling and pronunciation is "aitch"! A-I-T-C-H, see? One "h"!

    Now, I love grammar enforcement, as much as the next Nazi, but you must enforce _proper_ grammar, and in this case, you are wrong. It is actually "an", because the "h" in front of "haitch" is silent, so the first sound is an "a".

    P.S. Dear slashdot maintaiers. Could you please alter the "Allowed HTML" list a bit? Currently,

    <br>
    is in front of
    <a>
    and together, they form "bra". At the present moment, they are the only two tags, forming a word together and I find this discriminatory to the other tags. I demand that you reorder it like this:
    <p><ul> <br><a> <strong><li> <tt><i><dt> <div> <b><ecode> <dl><ol> <dd><em> <blockquote>
    And stop the discrimination.

    I wonder if the Woz himself thought of it or someone else?

  8. I, Mentifex by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Mentifex was the original author of Mind.Forth, Mind.html and the AI4U ISBN 0595654371 textbook of artificial intelligence.

    Mind.Forth was a primitive artificial mind written in Win32Forth for robots and based on a Theory of Cognitivity for artificial intelligence. AI functionality was developed by Mentifex first in Mind.Forth and ported subsequently into the Mind.html Seed AI for propagation throughout the installed user base.

    Mind.html was an artificial intelligence coded by Mentifex initially in JavaScript for Web migration and in Forth for robots, evolving towards full civil rights on a par with human beings and towards superintelligence beyond any human IQ.

    The AI4U textbook was reviewed falsely and viciously but found its way into libraries at such prestigious universities as the University of Hong Kong, North Carolina State University and Texas A&M University.

    Technological Singularity was launched almost single-handedly by Mentifex against all odds and in the face of desperate opposition from the FAQ-writing AI Establishment and the Singularity wannabes whose revenue stream was threatened by the free Open-Source AI software released into the Web Wilds by Mentifex.
