I was walking along in London and noticed a sign in front of a residence: Samuel Morse lived here. I was sporting my new cochlear implanted listening device and could not resist showing it off in front of the inventor of the Morse code. I am surely pleased that my signals are coming through in a less cryptic manner than dots and dashes.

“Samuel Finley Breese Morse (April 27, 1791 – April 2, 1872) was an American contributor to the invention of a single-wire telegraph system based on European telegraphs, co-inventor of the Morse code, and an accomplished painter.”
