I’ll be in San Francisco tomorrow thru early Monday and will be receiving a Computerworld Heroes medal on Sunday. This is no April Fool’s joke. I’ll be receiving the medal as the first step of a process that has a couple of more stages, but this part includes my wearing a tux to dinner — and wearing the medal to dinner! So the spirit of foolishness is somewhat preserved as I will look more like Harpo Marx than anyone distinguished. The distinction belongs to everyone who has contributed to sunsite-metalab-ibiblio in the past over a dozen years. The list is long, very long and I am deeply in debt to you all and delighted to represent you at the Awards.
If you are in Frisco, drop me a line or gimme a call and let’s get together. Saturday afternoon and/or evening is best for getting together as the awards start at noonish and continue into the evening.
What: Computerworld Heroes Awards
Where: San Francisco City Hall
When: Public ceremony – Noon Sunday April 3
Where’s Paul staying: Sir Francis Drake Hotel
Congratulations, Paul. Glad to see your contributions getting honored. Hope to see photos of you in the penguin suit!
