I need a good talk title

[Stephen J. Friedl]

Hi net.folks,

     In October, I'm scheduled to give a talk on the proposed
ANSI C Standard to the place of my schooling (Kent State
University, in northeastern Ohio), and I'd like to get some
trivia from you folks.

     First, I need a catchy title.  The talk will be to Math/CS
students whose primary experience in VAX/Berkelix, and I usually
give talks with a mix of tech/trivia/humor.  Any suggestions for
an eye-catcher are solicited.

     Second, I need some info on the history of the Standard.
I've been on the net since roughly February, and I had vaguely
followed the dpANS before that.  I have pretty good notes on the
noalias fiasco (including dmr's gentle rejoinder and Larry Jones'
chronology).  Did I miss any battles?  Any great trivia that
might go well in such a talk?

     Please email, I'll summarize, etc.

     Thanks,
     Steve
