Difference (from prior author revision) (no other diffs)

Changed: 1c1,3
A bug is an error in a computer program, the origin of the word is unknown to me. Ive read several different stories about, all with varying deviance from eachother.
Bugs are any of the small, terrestrial arthropods, sometimes taken to include creatures like snails and slugs as well. One particular group of insects, the Hemiptera?, are called the true bugs.

The word bug is also used to mean a disease, or a problem (especially in computer programs). I've read several different stories about the origin of this last version, all with varying deviance from eachother.
