Nelson in 1970 according to Wikepedia at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypertext
p.s. thankyou for the link about getting WINFX back its name. WinFX is a good name - renaming WinFx to Framework 3.0 is very confusing.

I got my answer from Wikipedia too.
I was going to say 1970, because it is the date of an "early definition" as stated in the first line of the article.
But then I scrolled a bit down, and in the History section it reads: "Nelson coined the word "hypertext" in 1965 and helped Andries van Dam develop the Hypertext Editing System in 1968 at Brown University".
Not that the date was important... Just FYI

It was coined in 1965 by Ted Nelson who used it to describe the multimedia system he proposed called "Xanadu".

Is Cyber Storm a software product, a spamming technique or a simulated attack?

Cyber Storm was a simulated attack conducted by the Dept. of Homeland Security DHS to Enhance Nation’s Cyber Preparedness.
|
|
|
|

I believe it's a simulated attack.

None of the above. This is the name of a new Doctor Who villian to be seen sometime in the recent past (depending upon when and where the Tardis lands).
|
|
|
|
|
Cyber Storm is the name of a simulated attack exercise conducted by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) between February 6-10, 2006 to evaluate the performance of various public and private organizations. The simulation was conducted from computers in the basement of the Secret Service in Washington DC.

The foot-pound-second system of measurements is commonly used in the United States. What system is most commonly used elsewhere?

M-K-S (Meter-Kilogram-Second)

Watts (and variants such as kilowatts, megawatts) are the most widely used power unit in SI, although horsepower is also widely used (especially for cars) in the UK.
Kilo-Metre/Second is rarely seen.

I guess it's also called the SI system of measurements, though M-K-S is the equivalent to F-P-S for the English (British?) system.

According to research at the Harvard School of Public Health, Americans believe there's a 50% chance they'll be involved in a serious accident. In reality, do they have: (a) a 5% chance; (b) a 10% chance; or (c) a 15% chance?

Who tap, tap, taps on your window pane to tell you they're in town: (a) Alvin, Simon, & Theodore; (b) Suzy Snowflake; or (c) six geese a-laying?

I think the geese would probably run into the window pane trying. And, the Chipmunks (Alvin, Simon, & Theodore) don't need to because you can here Alvin coming a mile away.
