Hello there...I have come up with a whole slew of new usages for the User Monty Python userbox. They are currently located
in my sandbox. I would like your opinion before I put them up for general consumption, and if you have any other suggestions, please let me know.

I visited the Deutsches Museum last week in Munich and noticed that the wrong attribution was associated with the ILLIAC Arithmetic Unit. I have exactly the same unit (I think this is something like 4 bits of the adder) at my house, as my dad worked on ILLIAC I and designed major parts of ILLIAC II and saved pieces from both machines at our house from the 1960's until 2005, when I inherited them. There is a similar but much flatter bakelite module sitting right next to it (barely visible in the photo) which I assume is the Oracle computer. I put post-it notes on the museum display and talked to one person there who said he would take a look, but he was busy giving lectures to a group of people. I have removed the incorrect photo from the oracle module and will photograph my arithmetic unit and place it on the ILLIAC I article (which I started on wikipedia.)
