I had heard that Dennis Ritchie, co-creator of Unix/C/Plan9/Inferno, had "retired." While searching the Internet seeking confirmation, I came across a couple of fun YouTube videos.
This first one features Thompson and Ritchie explaining what a system is (i.e. kernel, shell, utilities). Ritchie mentions how Unix enables the formation of programming communities. I think Stallman makes a cameo appearance. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7FjX7r5icV8 This second video is about Rob Pike's Blit. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=waTL1abCm9I
