In reading these, it is at least useful to know that {Marvin
Minsky}, Gerald Sussman, and Drescher are AI researchers
of note, that Tom Knight was one of the Lisp machine's
principal designers, and that David Moon wrote much of Lisp
Machine Lisp.
* * *
A novice was trying to fix a broken Lisp machine by turning
the power off and on.
Knight, seeing what the student was doing, spoke sternly: "You
cannot fix a machine by just power-cycling it with no
understanding of what is going wrong."
Knight turned the machine off and on.
The machine worked.
* * *
One day a student came to Moon and said: "I understand how to
make a better garbage collector. We must keep a reference
count of the pointers to each cons."
Moon patiently told the student the following story:
"One day a student came to Moon and said: 'I understand
how to make a better garbage collector...
[Pure reference-count garbage collectors have problems with
circular structures that point to themselves. ]
* * *
In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him
as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
"What are you doing?", asked Minsky.
"I am training a randomly wired neural net to play
Tic-Tac-Toe", Sussman replied.
"Why is the net wired randomly?", asked Minsky.
"I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play",
Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes.
"Why do you close your eyes?", Sussman asked his teacher.
"So that the room will be empty."
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.
* * *
A disciple of another sect once came to Drescher as he was
eating his morning meal.
"I would like to give you this personality test", said the
outsider, "because I want you to be happy."
Drescher took the paper that was offered him and put it into
the toaster, saying: "I wish the toaster to be happy, too."

<networking> /god-zil'*-gram/ (From Japan's national hero and
datagram) 1. A network packet that in theory is a
broadcast to every machine in the universe. The typical
case is an IP datagram whose destination IP address is
[255.255.255.255 ]. Fortunately, few gateways are foolish
enough to attempt to implement this case!
2. A network packet of maximum size. An IP Godzillagram has
65,536 octets. Compare super source quench.

Hackers Creek
Hackers Creek is a tributary of the West Fork River, 25.4 miles (40.9 km) long, in north-central West Virginia in the United States. Via the West Fork, Monongahela and Ohio Rivers, it is part of the watershed of the Mississippi River, draining an area of 58 square miles (150 km2) on the unglaciated portion of the Allegheny Plateau. The stream is believed to have been named for a settler named John Hacker (1743-1824), who lived near the creek for over twenty years from around 1770. He was a magistrate and patriarch in the settlement despite not being able to write.
Hackers Creek rises approximately 5 miles (8.0 km) north of Buckhannon in northern Upshur County and flows westwardly into northeastern Lewis County, where it turns northwestwardly and flows through the town of Jane Lew into southern Harrison County, where it joins the West Fork River from the southeast, approximately three miles (5 km) northwest of Jane Lew.
According to the West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection, approximately 69% of the Hackers Creek watershed is forested, mostly deciduous. Approximately 28% is used for pasture and agriculture, and less than 1% is urban.
