BTW, Bob Morris was not a Senior, and had no middle name. It is my understanding that he
inserted an “h” when a middle initial was demanded at the Labs, hence “rhm”.
His son is Robert Tappan Morris, Labs login and general tag “rtm," is not a junior.
(I had to fight spelling correction on this Mac so much for this post that I have turned
it off.)

Lorinda Cherry told me that that RTM (senior) used to test people's programs by
feeding them to themselves as input, a.out < a.out. It helped cure people of the
assumption that a program would only see "reasonable" inputs.
