Observations : Joseph Weizenbaum, RIP

And while I am at it, Joseph Weizenbaum, creator of the computer program "Eliza" died yesterday. I always respected him as one of the few professors at MIT who refused to take defense department grants for his work. Those who know him and his contributions to computer science will appreciate this tribute.
