>As I'm sure you know, Tom Rettig was also a child actor, a much more famous one. Years ago I was at an event at Microsoft where a clip from one of his roles was played at lunchtime. It would never be mistaken for a classic movie scene and Tom laughed along with everyone else, a characteristic response. He was a delightful guy and gone way too soon. And no dilettante, either. He knew as much as anyone about xBase and FoxPro.

I did happen to know that. I have communicated with Tom electronically a few times, but unfortunately I never had the honor of meeting him in person. I have heard so much nice about him. RIP, Tom.
