Completely OT question about a Larry quote

2004-05-11 Thread Simon Cozens

I apologise for asking this here, but I can't think of anywhere better for
it, and I have a feeling what I'm looking for was in a Perl 6-related talk,
so...

I remember reading a transcript of a talk Larry gave sometime which mentioned
a conversation between Heidi Wall and Damian Conway, in which Heidi said
something like But what is the future apart from a succession of tomorrows?
or some such. I'd really like to get this quote right, but web searches are
proving fruitless. Does anyone remember what I'm talking about?

Ziggy and Kurt both found this for me; thanks to both. Also, I confused Damian
with ESR; apologies to both.
