Well, well, well.
After recently losing a friend to cancer, now I lose my favourite protagonist to the same insidious disease. I enjoyed our little debates about the merits of JBL speakers. I remember him saying that he read my post regarding my delight with my JBL 4412s, with a great sense of satisfaction. I have to admit that much of the time, I was mostly pulling his leg and was being something of a provocateur, but of course he was sharp as a tack and well aware of that fact.
Most of his posts bordered on terse, to put it mildly, but nevertheless, his droll sense of humour was quite evident.
Zilch, I look forward to meeting you in person in a decade or two, at which time we can continue our debates.
Rest in Peace. And for once, do you think you can put away your oscilloscope?
Less Wank, More Data, indeed!
