<Computrons! Computrons! Now that I have your attention.... >
Probably the best way to hold everybody's attention is by utter irrelevance:
The leading comments to the micro-code for the MIT CADR (the second
generation of the Lisp Machine) included this quotation from Tommy
(I quote from possibly faulty memory):
Here comes Uncle Ernie to lead you to-
Your very own machine.
Which is humorous in part because of the context (all those MIT
hackers having put in the effort to develop their very own machine).
What I am looking for is quotations, potentially humourous or relevant,
for a mildly large user database system I will be writing next semester.
So, mail me all your favorite quotations or sources for quotations, and I will
1. be indebted to you
2. summarize to the net
3. never dig out from under my mailbox again
shar+enjoy,
Qux the Barbarian
