Hi,

Paul Zimmermann asked me for a "brief history of Sage" to help inform
a talk he is going to give about Sage.  I sat down to write such a
thing and instead ended up writing a long 16 page account of my
involvement in math software until about 2007, along with my
motivations for working on Sage.  It's pretty detailed and
*uncensored*:
