| Leesa, I remember and appreciate Karl, too. On the mailing list, Karl, Ed, and Vin could really make me laugh and cheer when they got going.

I wish that Ryan were wrong about this one. -=John Galt=- > Ryan gave me some devastating news this > morning--apparently our Karl (who was very active both on > the Rockman as well as the old mailing list) was killed in > a car accident earlier this year. > He was one of the first I met, and always my favourite > poster.
