Raymond Samuel - The Man Who invented Email System in 1972 and introduced the Symbol @ for linking Email usernames.Raymond Samuel Tomlinson is a US programmer who implemented an email system in 1971 on the ARPANET. It was the first system able to send mail between users on different hosts connected to the ARPAnet. (Previously, mail could be sent only to others who used the same computer.) To achieve this, he used the @ sign to separate the user from their machine, which has been used in email addresses ever since.

Respect for Nikola Tesla. A great Inventor of his times. Can we learn something good from a KAFIR too?

[h=2]Etymology[/h]The word kāfir is the active participle of the root K-F-R "to cover". As a pre-Islamic term it described farmers burying seeds in the ground, covering them with soil while planting.[SUP][1][/SUP] Thus, the word kāfir implies the meaning a person who hides or covers." According toOxford Dictionary of Islam the word 'Kafir' means: 'Unbeliever. First applied to Meccans who refused submission to Islam, the term implies an active rejection of divine revelation. In Islamic parlance, a kāfir is a word used to describe a person who rejects Islamic faith, i.e. "hides or covers [viz., the truth]."'[SUP][2][/SUP]
"Kafara," which shares the Arabic root K-F-R with "kafir," means to "disbelieve," and also to be "thankless," "ungrateful," "disown," or "deny." [SUP][3][/SUP]

You only strengthen my point... unbelievers are those who don't believe in the existence of one supreme deity...so Hindus, Buddhists etc are kafirs but not Christians or Jews. Thats why Muslims are allowed to marry them...if they had been Kafir then such a marriage would have been forbidden.
