Friends,
It's Friday 18 January 2008, which makes it my 50th birthday.
Congratulations!
... Ancient or not, I'm still having a terrific time in this community. When I first became addicted to functional programming, as a result of Arthur Norman's 4-lecture course, and David Turner's SK-combinator papers, I never dreamt of what a wild and fascinating ride it would turn out to be.
Thank you all!
Simon ...
Rest assured that there are many of us having a terrific time too. And not least because of your in many ways fabulous presence. Thank you Simon. Best regards Thorkil
