Happy Birthday!

Sir Charles Wheatstone

was born February 6, 1802
(d.10/19/1875.)

The English physicist is noted for having his name attached to the Wheatstone bridge,
a device that accurately measured electrical resistance and not over any river at all.

No more about him is known, except some junk about inventing the concertina.
