Must be nice to have to have the complete knowledge and wisdom of your entire "science" summarized neatly in one book (and a FREE book at that!). Also saves a lot of time when trying to think of advice for people asking for help, I'd imagine.
Look out, though. Some day, some visionary is going to come along with a bunch of new ideas that he just won't be able to shoehorn into a new edition of SICP, and he'll write a TOTALLY NEW book (SICP vol. 2?). If he's feeling really dickish, he might even charge money for it.
Be warned, codemonkeys.

We don't really believe that SICP is the be all-end all of computer science. It's a nice introduction which teaches some fundamental concepts, sure, but there's so much more to it then just that.
Look, if I were a student of mathematics, science or whereever you hail from, I wouldn't feel the need to try belittle others over an anonymous forum. So why are you here, what are you trying to prove?
hurr
Stopped reading right there. Take this talk back to the imageboards.

oh noes! I, the OP, have been caught trolling by this clever, clever person! Furthermore, I will now be deprived of his deep insights and intelligent opinions since he rightly refuses to post in my thread and waste his valuable time with me!
