Can't say I really knew him before I wikipediad him and spent three hours reading about programming. I have a bad habit of clicking words I don't know, this time it ended in the Z3 and Plankalkül, but I digress. Sad to see a man, who has built what most of the world is built upon, having to subcomb to a long battle with illness, and I am proud to say I am running several versions of the open source clone of his OS. It's also sad that noone really know he was, but everybody and satans grandmother knows who that douche bag Steve Jobs was "oh look at me, i made it a inch bigger and it has one more piece of memory"; off. it seems tgat yet again i have digressed.

Oh my god that would have been terrible. Can't say I've really seen her in alot these last couple of years, but I gotta say she does a pretty good job in Blue Mountain State. She wouldn't need to vagazzle her 'jayjay for me to stay interested. I wouldn't mind it, but I certainly wouldn't need it. |

I learnt to program in C during my physics course at university, so I'll certainly pay my respects, as I learnt to appreciate what he did first hand.
He certainly did more than most people gave him credit for. |
