Matthias and I pushed for that vision.  I don't think either of us for
a moment believed it had anything to do with programs being data.

By the way, programs are data in virtually all languages.  E.g.,

  "void main () {return 0;}"

is a perfectly valid string in C.  At a less mundane level, this is
the heart of Godel's insight.
