    You know that this is fake right? It is circulated every week to fool off people.

      Hope he had said, I am really disappointed.

    It is all satire, he didn't really say this.

  I'd love this to be true, but sadly it isn't. http://www.snopes.com/computer/program/stroustrup.asp http://www.snopes.com/computer/program/stroustrup.asp Surprised this got to the front page :0

    I'm surprised people need snopes to figure out it is satire.

  Hilarious. I wish I had tried C++ just so I could get this joke.

    Look into it. It's a nice piece of programming history. There's much to learn.
