re: Dr. Dijkstra Speaks
I'm so glad that you printed the letter to let others know what
fame can do to someone.  As soon as I read the letter
I grabbed (poison) pen and paper.  But alas, the letter was too
foolish to be worthy of a substantial reply.

It's alot easier to compose net mail, so here is my response:
"There are enough problems in the field already, we'd be
alot better off if computer scientists didn't waste their
colleagues' time with nonsene."  Silence is so golden,
some would be better off if they shut up and got rich!!

P.S.  Replies?  (Which newsgroup?)
