Hi Jonivision! Wellcome on wikipedia!

You say: If we are going to cover the modern science of computers, we should start with people like Shannon, von Neumann, and Cook

Well, I dont disagree. I suppose, from what you say, that you would also agree that if we are to define modern computer science, then it is probably more appropriate to call it the modern science of computing than the modern science of computers. No? Best regards. --Powo 08:56, 14 December 2005 (UTC)

Hey Jonovision! I have a question. I recently wrote the last paragraph in the Criticism section of the article on Corporations (the paragraph about public health). You noted that I must cite a reference backing my claim that corporations tend to make decisions that profit them, even if these decisions harm the public's health. Fair enough! However, I don't have a reference that 'says' that--I only have a corporation's website in which they openly talk about their decision processes--they clearly indicate that they make decisions in a way that backs my claim. Can I use this site as a reference? Must I use it in some special unorthadox way? The site is here. Thanks! Murftown Jul 19, 3:14 AM (UTC)

In Gratitude

Golly, Jonovision, thanks a million for awarding me the Copyeditor's Barnstar! It's really beautiful and makes me feel warm and fluffy all over, but the best part isn't the recognition and adulation that are sure to follow (;-), it's knowing that you care. It may sound sentimental and gushy, but I'm truly touched by your altruism and sense of compassion, having reached out, in a world beset with carelessness, spite, and covetousness, to do a stranger the kindness of appreciating his efforts, and arising to say so. How sensitive and generous of you! I don't know whether the Copyeditor's Barnstar is a great honor or a small one, but I do know I cherish it. This is the nicest thing that's happened to me in a long time, and I'm profoundly grateful for it, and to you. Thank you, thank you, thank you, sincerely.
