Vim has been with me all my adult life. I can't imagine using a computer without installing vim at one point or another. It's like an old Swiss army knife you can't live without.

Come to think of it, this man has had a lot more impact on my life than almost anybody else and I didn't even realize it.

Thank you Bram.
