LITERARY PAGE

Since the volume of our newspaper grew,
we decided to offer to your court a new heading. How long it
will be permanent and is there anyway - it's certainly you.
Here we plan to publish interesting
facts from every sphere of life, not just
Computer News. If such subjects
you do not like - offer their own. Maybe after your feedback we
have to introduce a section on politics, or publish recipes. ;)
Although the smiley face here is quite conventional. Newspaper
issued on paper, already fading, and Electronic media will have
to take all their functions, to become their priemnitsey ...
Okay, something I immediately blabbed too.
Well, meet ...
Corridor in the Andromeda Galaxy.
Corridor in the Andromeda Galaxy, a leading
of our galaxy, researchers found Radioastronomic Institute,
Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. Nearest to us nebula in the
constellation Andromeda has attracted the attention of
astronomers of the Earth. According to their structure, it is
very similar to our galaxy. Even the shell
which is surrounded by cosmic neighbor has the same composition
- a discharged ionized hydrogen.
It is established that our galaxy and Andromeda are
interconnected Gas jumper.
Because Andromeda is more powerful gravitational field than
the Milky Way, then the detected hydrogen corridor from us
flows in this nebula. This cosmic stream of ionized hydrogen
indicates less energy-intensive path to our nearest neighbor in
the gravitational field of the universe.
The benefits of delusions.
Today everyone knows that the phone is invented A. Bell. But
few know that it happened by mistake.
It is said that a linguist by profession,
Bell was deeply interested in physiological problems of speech
- the mechanism of occurrence of sounds in the larynx and their
perception of the hearing. On the advice of Bell's father began
to study the book of the famous German scientist Helmholtz
devoted to this problem. Knowing the German language is fairly
weak, Bell read in book something in and it was not - the
future inventor of the telephone has decided for some reason,
that the Helmholtz succeeded in using electrical appliances
peredovat sounds at a distance by wire.
Scheme of the apparatus in the book, naturally, was absent,
and Bell decided to play it myself. In 1875, the phone was
ready.

Preface.
It was the year 2579, old style, and on
our total 327. We were the descendants of the people
who survived in a strange epidemic that has befallen the human
race 253 years ago. When experimenting in space was a mistake -
the research laboratory was caught asteroid (as it turned out
not from the solar system), who accidentally fell into the
gravity field of our planet. Due to imperfect equipment
station, it had not been detected spores
virus disease affecting the nervous system
rights. Even when the stone was taken
on Earth, the virus found only after the transfer asteroyda
Museum of Space Science. Virus was found for young officials in
his spare time growing mold in his basement. After
he accidentally dropped the stone into the nutrient
solution for the last of the extracted species
thinking of fungi that were able to
some logical conclusion (we will not
go into the mechanism of their thinking, rather
limited, and we assume as fact). After
planting mushrooms in contaminated environment, through
while the young man was seen a dramatic decrease in activity,
and then and complete extinction of culture. He began to
investigate the cause, but to bring the work to the end did
not, because caught himself. He managed establish that the
death was caused by a fungus extraneous factors. Judging by his
record, discovered by our historians, incubation period of
fungi found in five times shorter than in humans. People
the virus itself does not cause fatal
outcome. The disease affects activities
brain, ie People stopped to think and make decisions that were
the instincts and primitive desires. Because of the high
virulence of the virus spread rapidly the whole earth.
Within a month after the landing station on Earth there is
not one reasonable person. To the delight of our historians not
all people Tupelo simultaneously. First resisted the action of
the disease are those who, and so close defended to the last
stage of the disease. Therefore, scientists at the time managed
to spend a great job to preserve knowledge and mankind itself.
The drug has not been found.
Chapter One. 76'y year after the epidemic.
Cities preserved. Continues to operate in orbit the satellite
tracking for brain aktivnostyu humanity. On
one of the abandoned uranium mines settled a tribe of 21
"human" beings.
89'y year.
One of the male children born physically quite normal, but
his nerve cells were slightly modified. He
invented some useful things for themselves
and for the tribe.
The satellite began uninterrupted tracking
tribe from the mines.
94'y year.
The boy became the head of the tribe. Three of his five
children showed signs of normal development. They invented a
simple language consisted of 109 words. Number of population
mines has grown to 200 people.
Chapter Two. 220'y year.
PC satellite was registered
level of brain activity of 125 IQ.
In the near to the tribe mines the city including the
lighthouse. Two young men are infected curiously, went into the
light. Through two years, the tribe, which by that time
lived in a semblance of the village, moved
in a city where every child and adult
passed the initial training using the library computer
connected to the satellite. A year later, following the end
akkomulyatorov energy and when he was given the last lesson led
the tribe, the reconstruction and rebuilding of the city. The
population of the earth at that time did not exceed twenty
thousands of people, including about six lived in the city.
Chapter 3. 327'y year.
Today.
Well, I decided to keep a diary. Today
Day 17 3'go 327'go months of the year. Today
my birthday, eighteen years
top fell and knocked. My father bought me
gift computer (this name was taken
for the convenience of the old books). I had not
could have imagined that this is a miracle. Our
ancestors could not even dream about this (although probably
dreaming). I saw the ad prospect of some ancient firm - seemed
"Pentium 200". List what about It wrote (about the speed and I
will not say - ridiculous): Up to 128 MB of memory (ha, my
memory is dependent on the size of the room in which there is a
PC - 1 cm cubic = 8 MB) hard drive up to 4 GB (again, ha! Our
operetivka can store information forever - hard and do not
need), etc. etc. A their CDs are not even compare with
our artificial diamonds, size 2
cm in diameter, and climbs up to 80 gigs (I do not
talking about the eight-centimeter). Do not know
heard our ancestors about neural processors or not, but based
on them, my father had already made on his work a couple of
robots that can reach and learns about the development of ten
children (by our standards).
Tonight at all, his father brought a couple of toys.
One of ours, and the second in what kind of dug that old
computer - DOOM said. 'm Going to play ...
21.3.327
To be continued ...
That such or no such faktiki Wikipedia and we plan to print
new section of ... Waiting for your opinion, dear reader!
