Frederick P. Brooks, Jr. Quote

I have long enjoyed asking candidate programmers, Where is next November? If the question is too cryptic, then, Tell me about your mental model of the calendar. The really good programmers have strong spatial senses; they usually have geometric models of time; and they quite often understand the first question without elaboration. They have highly individualistic models.
