> be Epicurus, IMO a much better analogy anyway
A little before I started there, my Fermilab boss Frank Nagy [0]
developed a new control system for the accelerator ring. It was called
Epicure, not because of any lifestyle philosophy. It was so named
because the system it replaced was called EPIC.

[0] the only person I know to ever write a VMS (or any other OS) device
driver and have it work on the first attempt. He did eventually release
a version 1.1 to add some new features. I think of Frank as a kind of
Hungarian Rohit.
