None other than the creater of the Bastard Mill File. He was later legitimately married, and designed the half-bastard mill file, in honor of his first born son.
Signer of the declaration of Independence, poet, laureat, rider of fine ponies.

What is the speed of light?
Seven years. And about half a million miles, whatever that works out to be. That's how long it took to figure out that my ex wasn't much better than wale blubber and I should have dumped her 6.9 years previously. It took seven years to see the light.

How does one copy a formula in MS Excel?
That depends on the availability of a kinkos. Also one's age. A pencil stillworks pretty darn good, and never needs batteries or an ink cartridge. One copies a formula by looking on one's neighbor's paper while not turning one's head. And it's only one way to excell. There are many others.
