Hello. The current revision says "It's well known that Monte Carlo methods were central to the simulations required for the Manhattan Project." Since there weren't electronic computers, how were the simulations carried out? Who was responsible for setting them up? Since the publications generally used to establish credit for the method date from the 50's, it seems this sentence needs to be clarified. Happy editing, Wile E. Heresiarch 15:11, 4 Mar 2004 (UTC)
