That's an understatement. I mean, somebody would have to be really clueless to not give mad props to dmr. C is still #1 or #2 (depending on where you read your stats) in overall language popularity. I blame GNU. ;-) However, dare I take this opportunity to mention that both Jobs and Ritchie have decent Wikipedia pages, but our beloved Pat has none! Sadly, I'm not really that knowledgeable about him, so I don't think I'd write a very good one. Jim? Anybody? Surely we can give him a decent legacy. :-) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pat_Villani ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure contains a definitive record of customers, application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity and more.
