Molloy, Remember Viterbi didn't write the article. I'm quite sure the journalist doesn't know the difference.

Didn't you think the tone of the responses in the article and the tone of the CC yesterday were consistent?

Viterbi's alledged remarks are, as Clark and I have pointed out on the serious thread, inconsistent with what we know about the man.

Only someone who was technically ignorant would mistake data rate for file size, for example.


I think the data rate must have been a journalist error (I've been interviewed several times and they NEVER get things right). As far as his unusual cockiness we saw in the article, I think that since he was all the way over in Israel and about to retire in a week, he thought, what the ****, I'm going to tell it like it is!
