Cutler wasn't the only key person behind VMS; the
other was Dick Hustvedt,
who was evenrtually injured in a traffic accident pulling out from DEC's
driveway onto Spit Brook Road and ended up on permanent disability with
short-term memory loss. A friend in the VMS group said that Hustvedt, not
Cutler, was responsible for much more of the tricky, nifty stuff in VMS.
But the survivors get to write the history.

I think you're confusing :
TANSTAAFL - There Ain't No Such Thing As A Free Lunch - Robert Heinlein? with
TANJ - There Ain't No Justice - Larry Niven, "The Long ARM of Gil Hamilton"
