History of the compass
Wouldn't a "history of the compass" section be great and fascinating? Anyone have that info. or a resource?

Intro
Doesn't a human "take a bearing" on a compass, rather than the compass itself? Should it be that a compass "displays a bearing"? --Robert W King 16:12, 12 September 2007 (CDT)
- hmmm - not sure - "is a bearing taken when there's no one there to read it?" - deep philosophy - we should ask Larry.

- Why does no one get my joke? "Does a tree that falls in the wood and no one hears...." Or am I just not funny? (P.S. my grandmother did in fact tell me never to ask a question I did not want to hear an answer to.....)
