Richard M. Stallman, Linus Thorvalds, and Donald E. Knuth
engage in a discussion on whose impact on the computerized
world was the greatest.

Stallman: "God told me I have programmed the best editor in
  the world!"

Thorvalds: "Well, God told *me* that I have programmed the
  best operating system in the world!"

Knuth: "Wait, wait - I never said that."
