I know it said email directly but this topic is a little too interesting to do that with. The article mentioned is in Esquire, October 1971. It can be viewed at http://www.webcrunchers.com/crunch/esq-art.html John D. was recently featured in the New York Times: 26-March-2000 which was a near full page covering none other than the Homebrew Computer Club's 25th anniversary. Immensely on-topic, I believe! The books "Digital Deli" and "Hackers" are good references also. The former features an article on John D. written by Steve Wozniak. John A.
