Computer Science as a pinnacle of the human thought

CS, as a pinnacle of human thought, well that might seem a bit much, but I would argue that in fact it is. I certainly would not say that is the pinnacle but it certainly is a pinnacle. Think about it. CS is the absolute embodiment of Archimedes's saying: “Give me a place to stand and with a lever I will move the whole world." With computer science as a lever, all you need do is pick a place to stand!
