As we move into winter, we are going to be hearing again about "windchill", a term coined by a Montpelier, OH native. What was his name and where did he conduct his research?

That's right, Paul Siple was born in Montpelier but his family moved to PA when he was a teenager. His birthplace is now owned by a local history buff and his name is on the corporation limit signs as you enter town. New Question...What young man from Stryker was with a group who played an important part in cutting the Confederate supply lines during the civil war and what did they do to accomplish this? Bonus points for anything you can tell about the movie made a few years ago recounting this escapade.

James Ritty of Dayton invented the cash register in an effort to keep the employees of his bar "honest" by recording the transactions so they couldn't just pocket the money.
You got the 'bonus" points on the "Great Locomotive Chase". Anyone have information on who and what?
