Thanks for the heads-up.
It's been so many years since I last saw Herb but I recall him well. His columns in
Datamation were of inestimable value; his ComputerWorld columns of constant value. His
self-deprecating sense of humor (while he truly thought himself the world's brightest
man) a constant joy.
I have forgotten how many times he was hired and fired by IBM, but I think he held the
record.
Keep them on their toes, wherever you go, Herb.
