-
- I have been looking for a paper for a few years now, and have decided
- to see if anyone out on the net could help.
-
- It was published around 1984-85 and was titled "A Tale of Two
- Programmers" or something similar. It was a story of two programmers
- (conicidentally) working on identical projects for two competing
- comapnies.
-
- It was pretty popular, and was xeroxed (tm) frequently.
- Unfortunately, one day I didn't get my original back, and was never
- able to find it. I don't recall the name of the author.
-
- Any help is appreciated.
-
- Thanks,
-
