Tim,
As someone who worked on DEC-10's, for DEC (on FORTRAN-10/20), then
using DEC-20's, your work on helping to save PDP-10 software alone
qualifies you for sainthood in my book (and I imagine many others' as
well)!
I have my own little corner of the 20th century I've tried to save
(www.gull-wing.net). Its it's own reward... Well, that at the e-mails
I get on occasion saying someone thinks the web site is awsome...
(In other words, I think your work is awsome!)
