The way I read this you are implying that Mike wrote both the ORCA and the
APW C compilers... This is NOT true. Mike wrote ORCA/M, the shell and asm
for the GS and a variant of that product is the APW shell/asm. Mike also
wrote ORCA/C, however, APW C is actually a Megamax compiler.

There are two ways to write bug-free code and only the third one works.
