From "The Connection Machine", Chapter 7: "New Computer Architectures and Their Relationship to Physics or, Why Computer Science is No Good".

This resonated deeply with me; in my opinion, no longer do the effects and phenomena described apply to the relative few working on truly extraordinary, ground-breaking things -- now, and ever more so, if you work on anything "Big", you will witness, play a part, and be part of the world of computation described.
