Owner of a aircraft manufacturing company stopped by the aircraft testing airfield to check on the newest test pilot.
He asked the supervisor how the new guy was doing. “Terrible! He has already crashed four planes this week!”

Supervisor said, “He designed Windows software for Microsoft.”
Tape recordingIn 1938, a tape recorder was used for the first time in the U.S. to send a radio broadcast. The sapphire stylus engraved Millertapeused was invented by James Arthur Miller of the Miller Broadcasting Company. A 1,000 foot section of this tape could carry a 15-min program, which could be editted by cutting. This first program using this sound tape was transmitted by WQXR, the Interstate Broadcasting Company, in New York City from 6:30pm to 7 pm. |
