             Subject: humanities and computer science

    Following Lynda Williams' suggestion in Humanist 18.029 of paying attention
    to "desirables" rather than "deliverables", I would like to suggest that we
    henceforth speak of our ideal person as the active "end-maker" rather than
    the passive, consumerist "end-user".

    Yours,
    WM
