Fez


The Fez
The History Guy: History Deserves to Be Remembered

When I was working on the SatisFAXion fax modem at Intel about a zillion years ago, Mustafa Ataturk was one of our code phrases. I never found out why. I remember hearing something about the Fez being banned in Turkey, but I didn't realize it was such a powerful symbol. Anyway, this video shows you that while the winds of change are constantly blowing, their direction is also always changing. Hmm, makes politics sound like the weather.
