A Joke
November 1st, 2005
Overheard on #haskell today:
Richard M. Stallman, Linus Torvalds, and Donald E. Knuth engage in a discussion on whose impact on the computerized world was the greatest.
Stallman: “God told me I have programmed the best editor in the world!”
Torvalds: “Well, God told *me* that I have programmed the best operating system in the world!”
Knuth: “Wait, wait - I never said that.”
Categories: Humor
Knuth is an Emacs user.

I’m really laughing here John. At two things at once. It’s a good joke and I’m thinking it would really be funny if I knew who the heck these people are. (I know your regular readers know them but as far as I know they could be local farmers names)
Very good!!!
