I've been getting several emails from people who visit my blog, talking non-stop about this great Nigerian scientist called proffessor Philip Emeagali. I must confess I'd never heard about this guy until now. I googled his name and was surprised at how much one Nigerian has contributed to the development of science in the world. Why has he never been mentioned by the Nigerian press? Or did I miss it? Anyway, I visited his website http://www.emeagwali.com/ and saw this...
*The Web owes much of its existence to Philip Emeagwali" - TIME magazine
*A father of the Internet" - CNN
*One of the great minds of the Information Age" - Bill Clinton
*Emeagwali Voted History's 35th Greatest African.
*Postage Stamps Honor Supercomputer Genius.
*Stamps issued to commemorate Philip Emeagwali.
*Oscar Winner Denzel Washington Asked to Star as Emeagwali
*CNN Calls Emeagwali: A FATHER OF THE INTERNET
This is so amazing. Those of you who have more info on this genius please share your knowledge with us...
BTW, I must say here that I'm very sad about Jodie's departure from Idol WA. I wonder what went wrong...
