I remember one of the EUUG conferences long, long ago, where a
bunch of us stood talking. One of us was wearing a T-shirt with
the famous "You are not expected to understand this" V6 code
on it. A young (Austrian, if I remember correctly) academic guy
came up to us and said "I understand what it does - do you?".
Dennis, who was wearing the shirt, just said "Yes, I wrote it"
with a light smile and the warm, friendly tone he so often had.
