Of course, as always the grad student (who actually did the work) gets shafted for the credit by his professor.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arpanet

The first message ever sent over the ARPANET (sent over the first host-to-host connection) occurred at 10:30 PM on October 29, 1969. It was sent by UCLA student programmer Charley Kline and supervised by UCLA Professor Leonard Kleinrock. But then again, that's how it is... my professor also took the credit for all my research work too. *******.

Probably cause he didn't do anything, just took credit for it. But I can't exactly talk, I don't really know.

And according to the News this morning (while the rest of the world was asleep) they mentioned that their first connection only lasted a few minutes before it lost sync. That really does take me back to the days of dialup.
