Another one of my heroes, down.

I urge all the august members of compsci.ca to take a few minutes and read up on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dennis_Ritchie. We all owe him and his team a lot more than we may ever realize.

I'd actually call C my favourite programming language, believe it or not. I like its utter elegance.

Every once in a while C allows me to perform magic. It's fantastic.
