A little history:
http://www.cooper.com/alan/father_of_vb.html
Interesting that VB (the real VB, not VB.Net) started out as a "shell construction set" merged with QuickBasic.

The Father of VB, I bow before.
By the way, I get an error when I try to compile your program, Mr. Match. Perhaps you didn't declare your ":king:" variable before using it in your C++ program? :-P

I think the topic title could just be referring to the name of the article, as opposed to a personal statement.

This implies that he didn't know this and thus finds it interesting. I could be wrong, but like I said, I think he's referring to the
article written by 'the father of vb'.
