Funnily enough,
I just saw another memorable quote that I had
forgotten from a certain Mr. Ritchie:
	What we wanted to preserve was just not a good environment
	in which to do programming, but a system around which a
	fellowship could form.

(Note the (possibly Freudian) slip in the first phrase.)

I suspect that even some of the younger 9fans probably intuitively
understand some of that sentiment ...

Cheers,
	Dave.
