The page at http://www.pbm.com/~lindahl/real.programmers.html suggests
that this quote is from ``A letter to the editor of Datamation, volume
29 number 7, July 1983.''  The author of that page writes ``I've long
ago lost my dog-eared photocopy, but I believe this was written (and is
copyright) by Ed Post, Tektronix, Wilsonville OR USA,'' so it may be a
bit tricky to verify the claim.
