     Kommentar till en text av MICHAEL LOO
Ärende: Re: womengineers 782
============================
-=> Quoting Michael Loo to Nancy Backus on 06-08-15  10:37 <=-

 NB>> Even before our time, there was the occasional woman engineer...
 ML> There of course was Grace Hopper, and long before her
 ML> that Lady Something whose ideas were taken by that Cabbage
 ML> or whatever his name was (my mind is particularly mushful
 ML> today).

You aren't perhaps talking about Babbage and his calculation machine,
are you...?  ;)

 NB>> but they were REALLY bucking the tide back then...
 ML> And a lot of the nitty-gritty codebusting work back in
 ML> WWII was done by women, but they didn't have degrees,
 ML> having more recently being stenos or telephone operators,
 ML> and they sank back into oblivion when their job was done,
 ML> sort of like worker bees of every sort I suppose.

Women picked up the slack on a lot of things during the war... none of
which really required the degrees, just the natural aptitude...  But
like much other work done by women, it just gets taken for granted...

 NB>> RIT's school of
 NB>> engineering is named for one such intrepid woman, Kate Gleason... :)
 ML> Heard the name, can't quite place her. Refresh?
 
As I recall, she was the daughter of the Gleason that founded Gleason
Works here in Rochester... and had sufficient aptitude for the
engineering side of things that her father employed her as such... She
may have been a student at the Mechanics Institute that was part of the
forerunners of RIT, but I'd have to actually look things up to be sure
on that... :)

 NB>> Must be something in the air or something... I had a bad reflux
 NB>> incident Thursday night, that I'm still coughing up gunk from out of
 NB>> my lungs... so far no fever, and the color of the gunk looks better
 NB>> now, so maybe I managed to miss that part of the bullet, anyway...
 ML> Yowk - I'm told that I should fear pneumonia, having had
 ML> it several times, always but one of the walking variety.

Now mine has cleared entirely... at least for now... ;)  Bronchitis has
long been my bugaboo... rarely pneumonia...  unless I've had the walking
variety, undiagnosed... 

 ML> Then they found lesions suggestive of ancient TB scars in
 ML> my lungs, but the recent tests show them to have disappeared
 ML> (or possibly have been an artifact or misreading of previous
 ML> X-rays).

I'd tend to vote for the artifact or misreadings, actually... but in any
case, not being there now is a good thing...  :)

ttyl       neb

... Move along, folks...nothing to see...just an off-topic message.
