Charles Babbage was also supposedly the victim of the first stupid IT question:
"On two occasions I have been asked, -- 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' In one case a member of the Upper, and in the other a member of the Lower, House put this question. I am not able rightly to apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question."
Sheldon Cooper must have descended from Charles Babbage (1:45)
