No mention of the Coad/Yourdon OOA/D method?? Also, birth date etc. is missing. The Y2K stuff is out of proportion and needs a reference. Lupo 10:23, 17 February 2006 (UTC)

"though his current website makes little or no mention of this."

Little or no? Which one is it?--"makes little mention" or "makes no mention"? Dan McCarty 04:03, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
