God of the Internet reads Barry Trotter...

...if we can believe this article in the Malaysian Star. Dr. Vinton Cerf, computer scientist extraordinaire, lists "Barry Trotter" as one of the books on his desk.

Suddenly I am seized with a desire to rewrite the book. Are there any jokes slamming the TCP/IP protocol? If so, Mr. Cerf, I swear to God I didn't mean it. Because if there's anybody who's figured out a way to reach through the internet and kill me, it's you, and I'm really really sorry for what I said about packet switched computer networks.

He was born in New Haven, CT, which makes me like him already.
