"Computer" is mentioned in 1...Very cool.<br /><br />"Computer" is mentioned in 1870, describing a person who computes, and then it's back in 1910 and rises sharply in 1970.<br /><br />"Punk" started in 1830 and was actually nearly as big in 1940 as it was in 1980.<br /><br />Strangely enough, no mention of "Voldemort" before 2000. They must not have searched The Daily Prophet.Steve MChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15026970188928733645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1746050382328975047.post-24679095684588044432011-04-12T18:18:27.168-04:002011-04-12T18:18:27.168-04:00Great tip and good to make your acquaintance.
