RADAR???
I believe it's the first computer "bug". Don't remember the exact details, but it was in one of the early computers. Way before transistors -- vacuum tubes, I believe. Perhaps military. (Navy?). Computer wasn't working. Naval officer, a woman if I remember correctly, found a moth within the internal workings. Removed it and computer proceeded to work as expected. Hence, the term "computer bug". This was in a book about computers I read about 20 years ago.
