Re: [wiardgroup] De mortuis nihil nisi bonum

2004-07-29 by Bill Sequeira

Holly cow!

This time around I stayed out of the debate as John tended to have a
"yearly" cycle on his provocative threads - last year we had a long thread
about the Wiard front-plate graphics, form following function, and whether
personality mattered in a machine.

As much as I disagreed with his strong views, I am very sorry to hear what
happened.  His contribution to making this list a lively one was invaluable,
and for how heated debates could get he always found a way to stay on
friendly ground. 

Vaya con Dios.



Regards,

Bill
