In June of 1984, I had been working with computers for 20 years and was about to turn 50 years old.  To celebrate, I published a piece of fluff called: "Computer Quotes -- plagiarized by Joe Vaughan."

Some other folks added in their favorite computer-related quotes, so they are guilty as well.

The document was liked by a few people at the Social Security Administration where I worked, and disliked by some others, who shall be nameless.

 (You know who you are!)

Here we go:

001 Queen to Alice in Through the Looking Glass:  It's a queer sort of memory that only works backward."
