Good points! I also have used the word app for programs as far back as Win 95, and know where you're coming from.

I didn't realize that Apple really did attempt to claim that "app" came from "apple." Interesting.

Thanks for taking the time to comment.

I don't think apple actually claimed that it came from apple. They just claimed the trademark to it.

Intended to give you a chuckle. I'm not the best comedian, so if someone wants to one-up it with a spin-off, fine with me.

I agree 100%. I've enjoyed reading about Feynman for about as far back as I can remember. One of the true geniuses of all time, yet so damned human that you can't help but love him.
