Just to push it a bit further, Danny Cohen is often credited as the
individual who first used the Jonathon Swift term in the contemporary
computer context -- see
http://www.rdrop.com/~cary/html/endian_faq.html#danny_cohen.
Dr. Cohen was a researcher at USC-ISI, but left it to help found
Myricom ( http://www.myri.com/) in Altadena (?) with some Caltech
folks a few years ago. The basic notions underpinning the Myrinet
products are pretty interesting. Fun stuff, indeed.

PS: BTW, the discussion on Tcl/Expect not too long ago was quite
valuable to me. It allowed me to do some nifty stuff at my day job!
So I, too, am one of those that read the mail list even if I have a
very hard time getting to the Thursday night meetings. Or the
Saturday devsigs. *snif*
