sho' nuff, the memory, attribution, and written forms of that concept are
lost. "The internet is written in sand."
For example, remember Howard Fullmer? One of Morrow's chief engineers,
"Parasitic Engineering", and along with Morrow was an early proponent of
standardizing S100. I once saw (in MicroTimes? that he had died, but can
not find any confimation that disambiguates WHICH Howard Fullmer.
OTOH, spammer mailing lists, and leaked personal and trade secrets
seem to last forever.
