Warren,
You certainly deserve this. Yes, TUHS wouldn't be what it is without all
its contributors. But YOU were the one initiated it, YOU curate the
collection and you steward the email list. You started the ball rolling,
and thus you deserve this acknowledgement from the community at large.
Congratulations!
Arnold

All, thank you all for all the congratulations! I was
going to pen an e-mail
to the list last night but, after a few celebratory glasses of wine, I demurred.
It still feels weird that Usenix chose me for the Flame award, given such
greats as Doug, Margo, Radia and others have previously received the
same award. In reality, the award belongs to every TUHS member who has
contributed documents, source code, tape images, anecdotes, knowledge
and wisdom, and who have given their time and energy to help others
with problems. I've been a steward of a remarkable community over three
decades and I feel honoured and humbled to receive recognition for it.
Casey told me the names of the people who nominated me. Thank you for
putting my name forward. Getting the e-mail from Casey sure was a surprise :-)

Many thanks for all your support over the years!
