TUG'99 musings

pierre-mini.jpg

Mr. Fine, with the eye of the sleuth
has discovered why TEX is uncouth,
that its catcodes are many
when there shouldn't be any
Has anyone told Donald Knuth?

Mr. Flynn is now running on La-
TEX, and finds, when the tread starts to fray,
he can patch up the rules
with his vulcanize tools,
pump them up, and be back on his way.

Though some of you authors may fret
about how every page should be set
and think what you see
is what it must be
Mr. Bazargan says what you get.

--Pierre MacKay
