But I felt sorry for the guy who came along later and tried to figure out what we had done! Most of the time I was the guy who was given someone elses work and told to "fix it". My first question: "Did it ever work correctly"? No one could answer that one. That is like asking: "What should it do"? I don't know, but when it happens, I will let you know!

TR was a real jewel of a friend. I was going to take the trip of a lifetime to Israel the year he passed away. I called him about 3 weeks before the trip arranging a dinner. He died a week later. The weird thing was that we talked about it. He told me his family had a history of heart troubles and he didn't expect to last long. I'd bet he was having chest pains but never said anything.
He was the best...
Best,
DD
