#1831How much does it cost to entice a dope-smoking UNIX system guru to Dayton?
-- Brian Boyle, UNIX/WORLD's First Annual Salary Survey
#1832How much net work could a network work, if a network could net work?
#1833Hug me now, you mad, impetuous fool!!
Oh wait...
I'm a computer, and you're a person. It would never work out.
Never mind.
#1834I *____knew* I had some reason for not logging you off... If I could just
remember what it was.
#1835I am a computer. I am dumber than any human and smarter than any administrator.
#1836I am NOMAD!
#1837I am not now, nor have I ever been, a member of the demigodic party.
-- Dennis Ritchie
#1838I am professionally trained in computer science, which is to say
(in all seriousness) that I am extremely poorly educated.
-- Joseph Weizenbaum, "Computer Power and Human Reason"
#1839I am the wandering glitch -- catch me if you can.
#1840I asked the engineer who designed the communication terminal's keyboards
why these were not manufactured in a central facility, in view of the
small number needed [1 per month] in his factory. He explained that this
would be contrary to the political concept of local self-sufficiency.
Therefore, each factory needing keyboards, no matter how few, manufactures
them completely, even molding the keypads.
-- Isaac Auerbach, IEEE "Computer", Nov. 1979
