I've been trying to put something into words to describe my feelings of the loss of Pat. It's sad and unfortunate. He did bring a unique outlook on life that I don't think will ever be matched. I hope his family someday can see all these and realize the impact he had on many of us. But I think David's got it right. LOS And Pat I hope there are plenty of Venusian Fire-Woman on the other side. -- Greg D.

You knew you were about to read something smart, or something funny, or, often, both. He was quick to share his enormous knowledge of aerospace history. Often he would supply a piece of a puzzle. I liked best his soaring flights of hilarious imagination. Pat was astonishingly prolific. According to Google: http://groups.google.com/groups/profile? enc_user=U79K5xIAAABD3RQyJRPhEUyHHO8PP2Ps8rhlH0Pnl 47z4AZhN98BFg Between 2000 and 2011, he wrote 51855 postings from one identity. I'm sure we could find many more if we dug into Google's database. Millions of words. I only knew him online, but after reading so many messages, I felt I knew him fairly well. Now and then, we'd exchange e-mail about obscure flying machines. I certainly would have enjoyed meeting him in person. If that was not to be, I am very glad to have encountered his writings. My sympathy to Pat's family and friends. Wherever he has gone, there must be laughter now. -- Bill Higgins Fermilab |
