"Back in 1992, after their show at the CERN Hardronic Festival, my colleague Tim Berners-Lee asked me for a few scanned photos of "the CERN girls" to publish them on some sort of information system he had just invented, called the "World Wide Web". I had only a vague idea of what that was, but I scanned some photos on my Mac and FTPed them to Tim's now famous "info.cern.ch". How was I to know that I was passing an historical milestone, as the one above was the first picture ever to be clicked on in a web browser!""

Why do most women insist on doing the cheerleader pose for group photos? Are they TRYING to show cleavage? If that's the reason, then I'm cool with it.

I think I'd take exception to "most women." I'd bet the majority of photos - by far - are not in this pose. The ones that are just get more attention. [A funny corollary to Jeneane's statement might be: we show our cleavage because that's where your brains are. I don't seriously think that, but it would be funny.]
