Oh, what a terrible news. His website is such a tremendous resource for HP
collectors. Researched, organized, encyclopedic. I don?t know how many
times I used it just to get accurate history and technical information on what
I was acquiring, and then for the ensuing restorations. And he linked back
to every single one of my resulting restoration videos or demos. I hope
the museum and site survives his passing and passion.
