So it is always a pleasure to listen to him talk about the craft. I think the world would benefit from Richard spending more time on the airwaves discussing particular design decisions he has made through the years, lessons learned, etc. Some qualified interviewer should get into the weeds with him (perhaps on SQLite or perhaps some other thing Richard thinks would be instructive) and try to download as much of Richard's substantive thought on programming as possible. Richard: when your contract is up in 2050 maybe you can write us a book. Sort of a "War As I Knew It" but for programming. :-) And if any of you know of other programmer role models of Richard's caliber, please do share pointers! Eric
