I didn't either, until I saw the wiki link.

Conway's Rules of Life wereIn 1573, the Parliament of Dole published a decree, permitting
the inhabitants of the Franche-Comte to pursue and kill a
were-wolf or loup-garou, which infested that province,
"notwithstanding the existing laws concerning the chase."
The people were empowered to "assemble with javelins,
halberds, pikes, arquebuses and clubs, to hunt and pursue the
said were-wolf in all places where they could find it, and to
take, burn, and kill it, without incurring any fine or other
penalty." The hunt seems to have been successful, if we may
judge from the fact that the same tribunal in the following
year condemned to be burned a man named Giles Garnier, who
ran on all fours in the forest and fields and devoured little
children, "even on Friday." The poor lycanthrope, it appears,
had as slight respect for ecclesiastical feasts as the French
pig, which was not restrained by any feeling of piety from
eating infants on a fast day.

My son, here are the facts of life:

1. A living cell survives if it has two or three living neighbors. One or none, and it dies of loneliness. Four or more, and it dies of overcrowding.

2. A dead cell comes to life if (and only if) it has exactly three living neighbors.

And those, my son, are the facts of life.

I am a geek of nescience. Which is not really a geek anymore. I say this because I didn't get it until seeing the link, and then it wasn't funny.
