In Stephen King's short story, Harold Parkette hires "Pastoral Greenery and Outdoor Services Inc." to cut his lawn. Yet a mystery surrounding the service is that no one has ever seen the person who owns and operates the enterprise. Parkette decides to find out the identity of the mysterious lawnmower man. In the earliest hours of morning he discovers the strange and horrible truth. The serviceman is not a service "man" at all but a strange inter-dimensional being that takes the form of a symbiotic organism, a machine that mows the lawn by itself while a strange naked man follows behind the mower, eating the grass. The serviceman has the appearance of a satyr who works for the Greek god Pan. The event is terrifying and beyond the comprehension and intellect of Parkette. In a panic he tries to call the police, but it is too late, and the mower and its human slave violently turn on him.

  • The Lawnmower Man, starring Jeff Fahey and Pierce Brosnan, released in 1992 by New Line Cinema. This film was based mostly on an original screenplay — the story concerns a scientist using a mentally retarded man for virtual reality experiments, who becomes more intelligent in the process but also evil — and only used minimal elements of King's story. King was so disappointed with the film's departure from his story that he sued to have his name removed from any association with it. A sequel titled The Lawnmower Man 2: Beyond Cyberspace was released in 1996.

I wrote the timing system for the intel chip.
No really!
It is part of the browser software, which is "owned" by Sun and Netscape. On the internet, there are three parts to the operating system; windows owned by Microsoft or NEC, the browser, which used to be Netscape, but is now Mozilla or Sun and uses the Java Virtual 'Machine" and the timing system which is written in JavaScript.

James Baldwin (Nobody Knows My Name)

 Interesting; Inside the front cover of this book is what looks like an early barcode. You can see how thick and thin lines become numbers, or stand for numbers, but no barcode is known to exist in 1963.

The patent was issued on 7 October 1952 as US Patent 2,612,994
 
. In 1951 Woodland and Johanson moved to IBM and continually tried to interest them in developing the system. They eventually commissioned a report on the idea, which concluded that it was both feasible and interesting, but that processing the resulting information would require equipment that was some time off in the future.

In 1952 Philco purchased their patent, and later sold it to RCA.


Philco, the Philadelphia Storage Battery Company (formerly known as the Spencer Company and later the Helios Electric Company), was a pioneer in early battery, radio and television production as well as former employer of Philo Farnsworth, inventor of cathode ray tube television.

Philco's rise to the top of radio makers was an amazing feat. While other makers like Atwater-Kent, Zenith Electronics, RCA and many now-forgotten others (Freshman Masterpiece, FADA Radio, AH Grebe, etc.) sold many battery-powered radios in the early 1920's, Philco only made batteries, "socket power" units and battery chargers. With the invention of the rectifier tube which allowed radios to be operated from the wall socket, Philco knew their business was doomed, and decided in 1926 to get into the booming radio business. By 1930 they would sell more radios than any other maker and hold that first place position for over 20 years.
