Are there any good Swedish composers?
Probably not, but neither is Wagner (let's revive the Brahms vs. Wagner
flamewar!).
All I can say to that is that anyone trying to take away my copy

It should be noted that no ethically-trained software engineer would
ever consent to write a DestroyBaghdad procedure. Basic professional
ethics would instead require him to write a DestroyCity procedure, to
which Baghdad could be given as a parameter.
