[vox] Computer Science Legends

[Brian Lavender]

Certainly Dennis Ritchie was a legend.

Some day when we are old and have gray hair (oh wait, I already have some),
we'll say, "I remember back when...."

and the story will continue with walking three miles to wherever uphill in
the snow!

So, who is working on E!

Oh wait, E already stands for enlightenment. 

How about G?

So, we have B (apparently), C and D programming languages. I think G would
be the most appropriate. G will stand for grammar production langauge, The
compiler of compilers! We know that for solving any complex problem, it must
be decomposed into smaller simpler problems. Therefore, I believe that G
is most appropriate.

"There are two ways of constructing a software design. One way is to
make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies. And the other
way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies."
