Herb Grosch

[Vernon Wright]

Thanks for the heads-up.

It's been so many years since I last saw Herb but I recall him well. His columns in Datamation were of inestimable value; his ComputerWorld columns of constant value. His self-deprecating sense of humor (while he truly thought himself the world's brightest man) a constant joy.

I have forgotten how many times he was hired and fired by IBM, but I think he held the record.

Keep them on their toes, wherever you go, Herb.
