The tiny Chippewa Falls in Wisconsin is famous for being the birthplace of Seymour Cray, and a bunch of Cray supercomputers he created. It was honestly really cool to visit so long after reading about this place and Cray’s history.

What was that word for nostalgia for times you didn’t personally experience?
