Domino? No, Dominoes!

Day to Day
So Matt and I enjoy playing Dominoes online a lot. Until recently, I had NO idea there was actually a game behind those mysterious little tiles that are so fun to stack and then watch fall down in a really nifty pattern.
History of Domino. History of Dominoes. :-)
Dominoes is a really fun game that involves lining up tiles of like numbers adjacent to each other, trying to get each end to add up to a total of a multiple of 5 (this is one reason I enjoy playing online for you...it does the math!). Interestingly enough, I have NO idea what that has to do with groupware, or why Lotus would name their server engine Domino.
I should stop here. I'm geeky enough (and I love puzzles) to try and figure out all the possible correlations, even though I'm sure a quick search on Google would turn something up. Oh wait, that requires a skill in math!
