No offense...... As you saw, yes. The computer field is still young enough that most of the pioneers are still alive and working. As with any community, there have been some deaths among them, but I can only recall one (Lyons) that wasn't generally regarded as tragically early. Having said that, I'm sure there are some I've forgotten and shouldn't have. I have no intention of slighting anyone. http://www.mired.org/home/mwm/ Independent WWW/Perforce/FreeBSD/Unix consultant, email for more information.
