Happy Birthday to many

Hey there! This is JohnnyT (not my cute wife Barb - who usually posts here)

This time of year has some amazing birthdays to celebrate. First and foremost on December 25th we celebrate the birthday of our Savior, Jesus Christ. We also are reminded of Joseph Smith who was born on December 23, 1805.

And the pure geek in me will add this to the list (from slashdot.org):

Today is the birthday of Linus Torvalds. Just under 19 years ago, on the first day the shops in Helsinki were open after the holidays, Linus rushed out and spent all his Christmas and birthday money on his first PC: a DX33 80386, with 4 Megs of RAM, no co-processor, and a 40 Megabyte hard disc. Today, the kernel he wrote on that system powers 90% of the fastest supercomputers, and is starting to find its way into more and more smartphones — not to mention everything in between.

I hope everyone had a great Christmas!
