Today, on April 27, 1791 Samuel Morse was born.

Morse is of course famous for inventing Morse Code. Morse Code is the primary language of telegraphy in the world, and is still the standard for rhythmic transmission of data.

This set of dashes and dots was originally used for the eltronic telegraph, but over time it has become the main form of communication between languages.

S.O.S is perhaps the most common form of Morse Code.

Grab you're paper and a pen, here's a game for you. Decipher these three messages:

1) .--- ..- ... - ... --- - .... --- ..-. -. --- .-. - ....

2) -. --- .-. - .... . .-. -. .-. .- -. --. . .-. ...

3) .-- ... ..- ... - .. -. -.- ...

I'll have the answers tomorrow.
