Look, just believe the people who were there. I was; my name appears in that thread.
Another thread, same year, "NEED C/C++ PROGRAMMER", started by "ITJOBS":
"Presumably ITJOBS thinks "Well, I've heard of C and I've heard of C++, but I don't know anything about either. They should be about the same."
"I see this a lot and just want to add that a slash ("/") does not imply a mixture of the two, it just means "and/or", so it would read "C and/or C++".
"All the left-brained, analytical people on comp.lang.c hate "C/C++". The right-brained, "creative" people don't mind it. End of story."
"C/C++ is 1 unless C is 0 in which case the result is undefined (I couldn't resist)"
