While not quite as famous as some other Italian or Ninja Turtle Leonardos, we do have a lot to thank him for. His most notable contribution to your life is probably found on the top row of your keyboard. While traveling through North Africa, Leo discovered that the local number system of 0-9 was far superior than the obscure combination of X’s, V’s and I’s the Romans had invented a millennium earlier to confuse later generations of elementary school students. Leonardo brought this number system to Europe and eventually we invented Sudoku with it. </P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.environmentalgraffiti.com/featured/fibonacci-sequence-illustrated-nature/10867"><div align="center"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/www.environmentalgraffiti.com/img/2A886C13-AA41-4B4E-9E36-02E5E6DB79A9" alt="Nautilus" /></div></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.environmentalgraffiti.com/featured/fibonacci-sequence-illustrated-nature/10867"><div align="center"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/www.environmentalgraffiti.com/img/C51E6E3F-D739-49D9-A948-4A50C5A1522A" alt="" /></div></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.environmentalgraffiti.com/featured/fibonacci-sequence-illustrated-nature/10867"><div align="center"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/www.environmentalgraffiti.com/img/B403E29A-C1F9-410E-9E2D-4F8AAB854549" alt="" /></div></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.environmentalgraffiti.com/featured/fibonacci-sequence-illustrated-nature/10867"><div align="center"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/www.environmentalgraffiti.com/img/856DA3A3-D7A0-4EAC-9532-E19A39B26923" alt="Nautilus Face" /></div></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.environmentalgraffiti.com/featured/fibonacci-sequence-illustrated-nature/10867"><div align="center"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/www.environmentalgraffiti.com/img/6A3B9539-4F7B-4F9D-B499-5028AE794C02" alt="Spiral Galaxy" /></div></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.environmentalgraffiti.com/featured/fibonacci-sequence-illustrated-nature/10867"><div align="center"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/www.environmentalgraffiti.com/img/96DACE96-2895-4130-AE2D-2D358858833E" alt="Sunflower" /></div></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.environmentalgraffiti.com/featured/fibonacci-sequence-illustrated-nature/10867"><div align="center"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/www.environmentalgraffiti.com/img/0439241C-80EE-45CD-A08D-2E7B3E021EE6" alt="Pine Cone" /></div></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.environmentalgraffiti.com/featured/fibonacci-sequence-illustrated-nature/10867">If you use your fingernail length as a unit of measure, the bone in the tip of your finger should be about 2 fingernails, followed by the mid portion at 3 fingernails, followed by the base at about 5 fingernails. </blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/FB0F0975-E1BE-4116-9CB1-56FEBF6127FE/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
