I remember seeing a lecture she gave that was recorded and replayed pretty regularly on the 'Open University Channel' up here in the 80's She handed out those 'nanoseconds' to the audience, but told them she only had one 'microsecond' - and then she pulled out a coil of ONE THOUSAND FEET of wire - the distance electricity can travel in 1µs. "Every computer programmer should have one of these hanging over their desk to remind them what they're wasting." ^_^ She RAWKED!
