Secret Message

Before there was text messages or instant messages there was Morse code. Morse code is a method of transmitting text information as a series of on and off tones, lights, or clicks that can be understood by those skilled observers without special equipment. Each Morse code symbol represents either a text character (letter or numberal) and representd by unique sequence of dots and dashes. A dash has a duration three times that of a dot.

Samuel Morse created the code that has been a wonderful aid to individuals in need of help. This very important code can be fun as well. Today on the day that the Morse Code was invented take time to use the code or one that you create yourself to leave someone a clever note. Of course they must be supplied with the code if you want them to understand it.
