Well, this is generally right.  I know other Pascal implementers
from that time read this group and they can comment.  I will just say
that if any language lawyers are interested, I still have copies of
Pascal News from Andy Mickle back to No. 4. (I left at 18).

Also note that Niklaus left ALGOL 68 development
just at Thompson and Ritchie came from Multics.

Another gross generalization from
