OT: xyzzy
"David Kazdan" wrote in message
... I wondered if anyone would mention that--it didn't start with the game. David, AD8Y who also played that at 110 baud many moons ago I didn't know about the math origin until I looked it up. Must have been asleep when that was mentioned in class. I played at a blazing 1200 baud on a CRT hooked to a PDP-8. How could have anyone guessed "xyzzy" without looking at the source code, like we did? (Cheaters!)
