    [NB esp the tribute to the life and works of Edsgar Dijkstra: "In their
    capacity as a tool, computers will be but a ripple on the surface of our
    culture. In their capacity as intellectual challenge, they are without
    precedent in the cultural history of mankind." His entire written output
    has been scanned and put online -- here is an example for us all! -- at
