Tims random things from meeting

Here are a few things that I shared this month at the meeting:

Queueing Theory: A mathematical study of waiting lines... very interesting.

Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin is very interesting, especially pages 83. It can be found here.

There were the about the same amount of Indians as their were Pilgrims at the first Thanksgiving. Chief Massasoit said he brought 90 Indians with him. Lincoln declared thanksgiving a national holiday in 1863. Before this it was celebrated as 'Founders Day" in the northeast. There has been many 'thanksgiving' feasts even before the 'First Thanksgiving'.

There are some interesting criticisms of PowerPoint. How can we make PowerPoint more effective?

The search bar in FireFox is most useful. I created a plug in to search the BYU Library. There are many more cool ones.
