+# Design Patterns and Computer Science
+
+I've often had a bit of a gripe against "Computer Science"...
+I've occasionally (often) thought "yeah... is it REALLY a science?"
+Patterns are one of the things that ARE actually making it a science...
+In "real" science one of the main things we do is look for patterns
+and give them names: "Redox Reaction", "Spiral Galaxy", "Beta Decay",
+"Evolution by Natural Selection".
+With Patterns, Computer Science is starting, finally, to catch-up.
