I frankly don't beleive that "PHP" started life as a recursively defined acronym - I remember reading somewhere that it stood for "Personal Home Page" which makes more sense to me. Anybody know the truth?
IIRC it started as Personal Home Pages and later PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor" was voted to be the new name.
