Tron: thought you might be interested (though you probably already know)

Chip Nowacek
Know the inspiration for Tron? None other than Smalltalk inventor Alan Kay. His wife, Bonnie MacBird, is a co-creator of Tron and says Alan provided the underpinnings of the story. So, when you go see Tron Refactored, remember it's just Smalltalk on the big screen. I thought it was cool anyway.
