Rudy and others cited Charlie Stross as coiner of "computronium". Is 
that correct? I know the term was used a lot on the extropian list in 
the mid to late '90s, as was "bogosity" and other entertaining 
neologisms. Charlie was there briefly, then, of course. But I suspect 
the term is probably older than that. Any suggestions?
