Richard M. Stallman, Linus Torvalds, and Donald E. Knuth engage in a discussion
on whose impact on the computerized world was the greatest.
Stallman: "God told me I have programmed the best editor in the world!"
Torvalds: "Well, God told *me* that I have programmed the best
operating system in the world!"
Knuth: "Wait, wait - I never said that."
