Happened to stumble onto this while reading other topics
recently.

The above URL points to a current interview with Kernighan of
K&R fame who tells the interviewer that he had nothing to do
with writing the C programming language, it was mainly
Ritchie's work. 

I was a bit surprised by this revelation and a few others that
Kernighan mentions during this interview re: AWK and others. 

Unfortunate for Ritchie that this information wasn't presented
sooner than it was but I guess better late than never? 

A bit too lengthy to post here, my apologies to those who do
not have Internet access.
