To all,
I did not mean to imply that "Sonny" was anything less than an
excellent man and a worthwhile contributor to this forum.

Reflecting on all the posts (and there were quite a few) and my
own relation to the "pcqanda" forum, I am still amazed (literally)
at the response to "Sonny's" passing. I think the matter is that
I (and perhaps others) have never developed a strong PERSONAL
connection to pcqanda. I support the work and have made some
minor contributions from time to time but my relation is more
of a formal/technical relation. I would like to develop a more
personal relationship if some of the reigning gurus would care to
enlighten this Electrical Engineer who has spent his life and
career in the academic/corporate technical trenches which I
understand from talking to people who have traveled to the
"outside" can grow to be quite isolated from the "real world".

Aelarson (I think this is an appropriate occasion to dispense
with my usual inebriated smiley.)
