Was that really Ken Thompson?[edit]

Is the person seated not Stroustrup? Did either Thompson or Ritchie ever appear clean-shaven? Please verify.

The consensus from many people who knew them (Ronald Natalie, Marc Rochkind, Doug McIlroy) is that this, indeed, is Ken Thompson. The comment on the source that it was Bjarne standing is just plain wrong. Groogle (talk) 22:13, 27 January 2016 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Vans?[edit]

Is Ken rocking some w:Vans by any chance?
