Let it go Paul. It's like the word "hacker". We ain't getting it back. It's sad the popular perception of a fundamental computer science concept, the great progeny of Al-Khwarizmi Musa, the life work of heroes like Donald Knuth, is sullied and stained with dire B-movie comic-book Bond villainy. Thank the hooligan broligarchs and their manchild ambitions for trashing that bit of computing culture. Even my mum spits in the dust like a cowboy at the sound of "Algorithm".
