RE: Aaron Bartell's RPG/Java comparison

Count me as one. There are things that are important to me and things that
aren't. Trivia is good for Saturday night beers with the friends. That
doesn't make history right or wrong. Just not my thing.

In retrospect, I agree with you 100%, Paul!  But you're "in the know."
There are many
folks in our industry that don't know (or care) about the history of our
chosen profession
and the machines on which we work!

(my humble observation...)

I'm sorry, but referring to Alan Turing as `a British guy' is like referring
to Thomas Edison as `an American guy'!  Turing is one of those names that
should never need to be qualified.
