     What happened is that Ken Thompson came to Berkeley and
     brought this broken Pascal system, and we got this summer job
     to fix it. While we were fixing it, we got frustrated with the editor
     we were using which was named ed. ed is certainly frustrating.

err yes, i remember doing assignments in 'pi' and hacking in procedures
(etc ...) that were basically threads.  not all my work.  strangely enough
one of the guys who did a lot of the work was killed in 9/11.

another one of those (somewhat less annoying) australians.
