A story that Steve Zimmerman once told--and I can’t
remember if in-person at a Usenix, on a mailing list, or on Usenet--was that on some
Chinese restaurant menu he found this item: "Sliced Children with Tomato Sauce".
(Note: "children", not "chicken"!) For fun, Zimmerman tried to order
it, asking to be sure it was in fact sliced children, not sliced chicken. The waiter
carefully explained it was a typo, became very apologetic for disappointing him, etc. :)
Every once in a while I look for that post but I’ve never found it. I wonder if anybody
else from the recalls it from the 80s.
Google says, 'No results found for "sliced children with tomato
sauce".'
FWIW, Here’s a search that turns up a few things related to CCA Emacs:

My recollection is that Zimmerman passed away while relatively young, but hopefully I’m
wrong. I didn’t find him on LinkedIn just now.
