  • 1946: Mathematician, statistician, and Gnomon algorithm theorist Harald Cramér visits the Nested Radical coffeehouse in New Minneapolis, Canada, where he gives an impromptu lecture on the mathematical definition of probability, "from which its fundamental properties and the classical theorems are deduced by purely mathematical operations."
