Subject: The Vollmar song
Hi
Ken,
My
name is Reuven , I live in
Today
while googling for my name I came up with your home page and saw my song
mentioned.
It
was very funny to find this piece of ancient history. I was laughing like crazy
and I especially enjoyed the censored version.
You
might be interested in the story behind this song :
Back
at 1998 I was a soldier in the Israeli air force. I was maintaining a software
system which had some code written by you. I believe that you wrote that code
years before that and your name appeared as the original creator
of some files.
Me
and the other guys on my team , began to come up with
funny stories about who this Vollmar person must be. And so ,
being a programmer by day - basement musician/rapper by night , I wrote this
song as a joke for my teammates. I also published it on my homepage.
Well,
I don't think that it had much exposure on my site. I guess that it has a much
wider audience on your homepage.
Again,
I was extremely happy to see that my song exists somewhere on the web , a long time after I forgot about it. It just comes to
show that stuff you put on the Internet is like Styrofoam - it will take
it forever to disappear.
Regards , Reuven
