I found two typos in the 25th anniversary edition of the book. I used
finger to find his postal address and sent him a letter. He replied with
a nice thank you email. One of them had been in the book since it was
first published!

He was a Unix (and UUCP) fan and also an early

say I was a tad in awe when I was answering his questions when he came on
a factory visit. But he was cool when I asked him if I could go back to my
office and get his book so he could sign it. I think he was pleased to see
a then young professional have it in his office.
