make me think of

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosetta_Stone

some day one finds an old bunch of mem chips and magically it contains 
left overs of a plain tex, latex and context run ... all kind of 
interesting expansions, catcode remappings, a bit of utf 8 in there and 
of course snippets missing ... and from that trying to reconstruct the 
tex primitives, concepts, whatever as well as the input file(s) ... 
makes a nice effort

anyway, this topic is less and less related to luatex
