Since Greg reminded me, and since I'm the one to share random historical events....

Today's the anniversary of arguably the single most important naval conflict ever. The 200th anniversary, in fact.

On this day in 1805 was the battle of Trafalgar.

I think I'm going to drink something British tonight.

Trafalgar is just a great word and that is what the physics geek has to say about that.

Did you see that they had a great festival in the square in comemmoration? Complete with demonstrations of naval technology, fireworks and hullabaloo.
