Elsewhere in history...


Jan 24 41 Roman emperor Caligula is assassinated by his bodyguards.

Jan 24 1908  The first Boy Scout troop is organized in England by its
founder, Robert Baden-Powell. He enjoyed watching the boys swim naked,
and as a hobby he collected photographs of them.

Jan 24 1978 The nuclear-powered Soviet Cosmos 954 satellite plunges
through Earth's atmosphere and disintegrates, scattering radioactive
debris over parts of Canada's Northwest Territories. Much of the
satellite lands in the Great Slave Lake; only about 1% of the
radioactive material is recovered.

Jan 24 1986 Crackpot and founder of the fraudulent Scientology movement,
L. Ron Hubbard dies. His bad science fiction writing has grown alarmly
prolific in the years since his death.

Jan 24 1989 Ted Bundy put to death in the Electric Chair for the murder
of Kimberly Leach, after ten years trying to appeal. Here is a
post-mortem picture of the burns on Bundy's head.


Happy birthday, Lew.
