I got to hear her speak once when I was a freshman in
college before I really knew much about who she was.
Yet there were still several things she said that have stuck
with me ever since.  Years later I was talking with a retired
Navy admiral that I worked with and if I remember correctly
how he put it, Hopper was the only person Nimitz was ever
scared of.

Alas, I never got one of her nanoseconds either.  But I
still love telling my students the story about them.
