Well, that exaplains a great deal, doesn't it? So much for being
a "peer of C.A.R. Hoare".
Actually, it occurs to me that this whole "Ted" persona must be a
giant fabrication. A practical joke, perhaps, by Karl Nyberg
(notice the net address used). Nobody could be _this_
preposterous! I have this mental picture of Karl pulling our
collective leg, sitting at his terminal wearing a Bozo mask so we
won't recognize him.
Karl, is that you?!?
