Ditto to everything you said. In the Compuserve days of the FoxForum Lisa was a shining presence ( you did a bit of shining yourself ).

I remember exchanging frequent messages with her on a wide range of non-Fox subjects ( she was the only other person I knew who had heard of the Jews of Hai-feng ) and one of my first pre-Internet "wow" moments was when i mentioned something about "how's the winter in Santa Rosa" and she said it was summer as she had moved to New Zealand three months before - which of course had been undetectable in our on-going conversation. No big deal now, but in the early 90s it was still dawning on us.

>Along with Tom Rettig, George Goley, and YAG, Lisa was as prominent as any FoxPro developer in the world in the early days. She was the editor of FoxTalk (which was all there was then) for quite a while and that gave her a very high profile. A very smart lady in general. If I don't misremember, she has an anthropology degree from Harvard.

>Not to overlook Rick, who I know better. He's a good guy, very knowledgeable, and has worked tirelessly for the FoxPro community for a long time.

>>Rick was on my list, but Lisa was off my radar, but both are well deserved recipients. Thanks for the work you put into the selection and making the announcement.

>>>It was my great pleasure to announce at Southwest Fox 2010 the recipients of the 2010 Lifetime Achievement Award: Lisa Slater Nicholls and Rick Schummer.
