I hear you and accept that was your experience, but I do find that it is
interesting, that one of the most infamous and notorious UNIX hackers of
all time is Henry Spenser of the UT Zoology Dept - not Math, not CS or EE.
Sure -- this is real irony (and a missed opportunity). I walked past
Zoo almost daily ignorant of Henry's existence. (Had I known, I would
have gladly stopped in to talk.) The point is that though we had Sun
kit in the math dep't, we were not part of the UNIX "in crowd".
