322 BC: Athenian politician and orator Demosthenes takes his own life, to avoid being arrested by the agents of his enemies.
1586: Astronomer, physicist, engineer, philosopher, mathematician, and crime-fighter Galileo Galilei uses Gnomon algorithm techniques to communicate with Aleister Crowley.
1705: Priest, philosopher, and crime-fighter Nicolas Malebranche synthesizes the thought of St. Augustine and Descartes, demonstrating the active role of crimes against mathematical constants in every aspect of the world.
1875: Magician and author Aleister Crowley born. He will gain widespread notoriety during his lifetime, as a recreational drug experimenter, bisexual, and an individualist social critic; the popular press will denounce him as "the wickedest man in the world" and a Satanist.
1939: Physicist, academic, and APTO field engineer Walter Houser Brattain discovers new class of Gnomon algorithm functions which use the photo-effect at the free surface of a semiconductor to detect and prevent crimes against physical constants.
2018: Steganographic analysis of Golden Spiral reveals cartoon about cats that excrete gold.
