Bubble Wrap was created by two engineers, Alfred Fielding and Marc Chavannes, in 1957. Like many innovations, it was accidental: The two were trying to create a textured plastic wallpaper with paper backing that could be easily cleaned.

Inscribed in my Latin Book when I first took it was a poem - and OLD, OLD joke, probably old in 817 when Monks in Ireland were Illuminating manuscripts.

Latin is a dead language
As dead as dead can be.
First it killed the Romans
And now it's killing me.

But a sound knowledge of Latin and Greek allows one to be able to be more aware of your own language (English) and the language of science (lot's of Greek and Latin) as well as allowing the "easier" understanding and learning of other Romance Languages.
