In April, 1963, NBC premiered “General Hospital”, which would become their longest running serial program. In April 1976, Apple Computer was founded by Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak.

Littelfuse Surge Protection for Commercial & Outdoor LED Lighting James R. Dukart Lightning strikes are a fact of life, and can be a threat to outdoor lighting and electrical devices. A single lightning strike can deliver an electrostatic charge of millions of volts. A single strike can also create voltage surges of thousands of volts that can travel miles, effecting downstream lighting and devices in parks and stadiums, along roadways and bridges and in tunnels and parking lots and ramps. Unprotected street lights, electrical signage, traffic lights and roadway lighting can all go dark in an instant. Whole House Energy Control – Even Smarter! Steve Maurer, IME I may be an old guy (hit 61 this year... I think), but I absolutely adore tech. I fired up my first computer in the 80s and love all things internet, Wi-Fi, and home-technology related.
