Top Ten Geek Girls
TurboPatrol writes "CNET have published a list of the Top Ten Girl Geeks throughout history. The winners include the elegant Ada Byron (the world's first computer programmer), Grace Hopper (invented the compiler) and Lisa Simpson (invented the perpetual motion machine — well, in the world of cartoons). Some of the entries are fascinating, for example Marie Curie apparently used to carry plutonium in her jacket pockets. Have they missed anyone out?" At least two entries on the list are stupid. I guess someone thought they were funny.
Well, inside she's mostly zero's..
Forgot to add, here's a link to her Flickr acct:

I'm not a stalker or nothin, just wanted to post that before I go back to hiding in the bushes with my binoculars.....
Chums up, let's do this!
I have a hunch where the 1 gets inserted
A woman invented COBOL? This does not surprise me. *ducks*
Paris Hilton is the loveable hateable icon of absurdity. She should be on every list. Sexiest woman (#47 Paris Hilton), best actress in a foreign film (#23 Paris Hilton), world's strongest man (#97 Paris Hilton), most downloaded interent video star (#3 Paris Hilton), most likely running mate for Barak Obama (#2 Paris Hilton), and people who remind you of the Olsen Twins (#1 Paris Hilton).
We laugh today... but I wouldn't be surprised if Paris isn't the first female US president... and most likely will be the first president to put electrolytes in the water supply.
What's sad is that we haven't learned from history and realized that women have smaller brains then monkeys and cannot be practically educated. Khazakistani scientists have proven it time and time again. :)
Well she had to get plutonium back to herself somehow. I'm sure in 1985 you can get plutonium at your local conrer store but in the 1930's it's a bit harder to come by.
Even Hillary Clinton is more geeky than Paris Hilton, just for being married to a guy who used to work with the guy who invented the Internet, and then moved on to make a world-renowned powerpoint presentation about the weather.
Well, Paris Hilton was an early adopter of the rapidly growing field of celebrity online cocksucking - though I have to say the article's omission of Pamela Anderson (a pioneer in the field) is pretty disappointing.
And also interesting is the fact that there's no mention of how much cock any of the others sucked. Quite shoddy standards, if you ask me.

"North America was created in 1492."
Yes, Christopher Columbus "created" North America in a supercollider (in his parents' basement, I'm sure). It wasn't until decades later that trace elements of North America were found naturally occurring in extremely small amounts, thanks to North America's extremely long half-life combined with one-in-a-million occurrences of natural plate tectonics.
>Paris Hilton?
Uh, yeah, ABOUT that.
>The only thing this list proves, it the author's inaptitude as a journalist.
You spelled "asshole" wrong.
Maybe Paris Hilton is on that list to give Mary Shelly new ideas?
Need Mercedes parts ?
Great. 'Cause being hot is the quality we should be concerned with when identifying the best geeks.
There are lives at stake here!
