Re: Cheers for Steve (and Jamie, and...)
Thanks for nominating me, it was an honor. Unfortunately, none of
us
(me, Erik, Lars, Jamie) even made finalist. :-( boo hoo ...

There were a lot of good people on the original list. So I wouldn't
feel too bad about not making the finals. I think it will take
several years before all the people that deserve to win, actually
make it to the finals.
My guess is that either Donald Knuth or Larry Wall will win.
