SMALLTALK-52 AND THE WHEELER SEND

Recently discovered documents reveal that J.M. Wheeler
designed the first version of Smalltalk in 1952.
It was intended to run on the University of Cambridge's
EDSAC Computer.  The initial implementation, however,
required the entire 512-word memory and was deemed
infeasible.  Wheeler, who is credited with the invention
of bootstrap code, subroutine calls, assemblers, linkers,
loaders, and all-night hacking, can now be properly
credited with inventing message passing, object oriented
programming, window systems, and impractical languages.

This fascinating historical discussion will be hosted
by Steve Berlin and will be preceded by Lunch.

Next week: Lady Lovelace's Encryption Algorithm
