C Community's Cavalier Attitude On Software Reliability

Wolfe, I gather, intends to construct a case against C by grepping
for titillating phrases in the BUGS section of his manual.
Rather than decry the C community's derelictions in not maintaining
a direct line to the international money markets (so as to keep
the monetary conversion coefficients of the units program
up to date, and thereby salvage our reputation in the software
engineering biz), I think it would be more appropriate to discuss
Wolfe's (wtwolfe at hubcap.clemson.edu) complicity in recent
and past Clemson football scandals. Did he have any role
in the jock dormitory affair? What was his relationship with
Danny Ford?
These questions seem approximately as relevant as the ones Wolfe
raises.
