    Knuth was born in 1938, making him 65-66 years old, 72-73 when the planned release of Volume 5 comes around. It's going to be a tight squeeze no doubt, but it's not impossible; Knuth could pull a Chomsky and keep on writing books into his eighties.

    Stanford are going to hate us - direct linking to a 600K PostScript in the article.

    Don't click on it unless you actually plan on taking the time to READ it!
