That brings to mind something that I've been thinking about for a
couple of years. In watching the stuff in Linux and poking around the
simulators and old code, I can see at least three different cultures.
Murry Hill (Bell Labs), 545 Technology Sq (MIT), and Berkeley. These
cultures have belief systems that are mutually exclusive. And there
must be subcultures as well. The socket interface, for example, is
really MIT culture thru BBN to BSD.
Anyone else see this? More cultures?
