Grace Hopper's story isn't apocryphal #237

Referencing your footnote on page 41 / location 642 of my Kindle version of Learning Processing, the story of a moth getting stuck in the relay circuits of one of Grace Hopper's computers isn't apocryphal. It simply isn't the first case, which can, I believe, be traced back at least as far as Edison.
