I wish you had provide warning as the the magnitude of the resulting mind warp that would cause!-) I've just watched a clip of that found after a web search, and about the only thing I can think of is to ask "Is that Elvis Skynyrdski performing in Russian Vegas?" rick jones -- a wide gulf separates "what if" from "if only" these opinions are mine, all mine; HP might not want them anyway... feel free to post, OR email to rick.jones2 in hp.com but NOT BOTH... |

....You know, a prime example of how much of a loss is felt without Pat being around is the current location of Karen Nyberg. Patrick would have been giving us daily - if not hourly - reports of Karen and her gravity-defying hair as she winds up earning the title of the "Sexiest Woman in Orbit" since Seven of Nine. He'd have forgotten his fire women within 30 seconds after she boarded the ISS, that's for sure.

....You know, what I really think Pat would have gotten a kick out of was the fact that if you do a Google search on "sci.space.history", the obit page on CollectSPACE for Pat comes up as the second result behind the group itself.

I agree with that. We're coming up on the 2nd anniversary of his passing. I think his last posting on Usenet was September 28th? Dave |

IIRC, he was found dead in his home, with the actual time of death having occurred sometime either on the 28th or the 29th. Mox nix as to the fact we lost a good friend that day. Just wish we could come up with a really wild tribute that Pat would have been embarrassed to dea...er, tears over, but I can't think of one more immortal than the Google search, as it might just outlast Usenet if the rumors of pulling the plug in 2018 come to pass. ....On a side note, rummaging through a large box of old computer parts last night trying to determine whether or not to toss the damn things, I found a couple of old 2 and 3 GB HDs that *might* contain my lost archives of ssh from the day George sent the first post to just after Y2K. I've got to dig up an IDE controller card - I'm totally SATA now save for one dedicated IDE port on one system going to an old Velociraptor that doesn't support dual IDE channels for technical reasons - or unretire an old D*ll box to check them out, but as a *lot* of the posts from that period are disappearing off of Google Groups' archives on a daily basis - Fred McCall's covering his tracks and everyone else's, it seems - I'd love to be able to search through them again. Especially Henry's postings, and Dwayne's early spookshow research conducted before his ego refused to allow him to acknowledge he'd grown a ten-foot corncob up his ****ing arse. OM |
