March 26, 2004 What's in a name? | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
There's a hoary old joke about some explorer who scours the world for the grave of Mozart. When he finally locates and open the tomb, he finds the old-dead-guy tearing up his manuscripts ... "What are you doing?! Those are priceless treasures!" he cries. "De-composing" replies Mozart. So ... it just struck me that Walter may have surreptitiously snuck in a crafty one regarding the D compiler (de-compile?). - Kris |

I actually thought it was funny! :-D

Posted in reply to John Reimer | No offence intended (of course). But my macabre sense-of-humour was tickled by the notion that we, all of us on this newsgroup, are effectively de-compiling ... what does it all mean? :-) - Kris "John Reimer" <jjreimer@telus.net> wrote in message news:pan.2004.03.26.10.44.36.131301@telus.net... > <snip> > > > .. that's clever, but not too funny... > > I actually thought it was funny! :-D > > ...although I wouldn't say it was very flattering to D. |

Posted in reply to Walter | Ah yes; And what about D-porting? or perhaps (almost an oxymoron) D-cyphering? or the OO D-composition :-) or the French D'etente or (aha ha ha!) Matthew's D-Range() ... Ahem, 'scuze me I'm sure Brad Anderson can come up with some more.
