    Good to know, it never sat right with me that Guile depended on BDW-GC for so long. That's what you use when you are implementing a toy language and don't have time to write your own GC.

    So what happens next? does Stanford and his past employers sue for what he has already been paid? Does he lose his prestigious degrees? Because if this ends with his resignation, the fraud was totally worth it.
