491.0. "See you on the flip side" by STAR::HUGHES (Captain Slog) Fri Oct 13 1995 14:34

    Well, folks, I'm outta here.... My last day will be next Tuesday.
    
    Now I know you've heard this before :-) but this time it should be more
    than a few months. I'm off to work at a small (<20 people) startup,
    Marathon.
    
    One of the few things I'll miss will be you people and the sense of
    community that exists in this conference. You have something special
    here and I hope you can keep it alive.
    
    I'll be in Boxboro, so if anything is being planned (as in at least the
    day before) in the Westford-Hudson arc, I'd appreciate a heads up to
    ghughes@tardis.com. We're not on the net yet (I told you it was small*)
    
    cheers,
    
    gary
    
    * how small is it?... if you want to change your mind, you have to go
    outside....

    ...yes, many happy-happies to you, Gary...will miss the occasional
    banter with you in the Doctor Who notesfile.....
    
    ..."may the road rise to meet you...
        may the rain fall gently on your crops...
        may your joys be many
        and your sorrows few
    
    
    ...and may you be in Heaven a half-an-hour
                   before
       the Devil knows you're Dead"...
    
    (borrowing ever so slightly from various poets, Dead or otherwise...)

    Thanks for all the good wishes...
    
    No, it isn't the same place as Linda (she went to Vmark, a little
    bigger than 18 employees...)
    
    And I am outta here....  I can hear a margarita with my name on it...

    Once again it is time to spin that revolving door, and I'm outta here.
    
    I'm winding up this contract next week and at the moment it looks like
    I'll be working for KO for at least a few months, which has a nice
    symmetry to it.
    
    As always, I'll be reachable at  ghughes@tardis.com (and tardis.com is
    now a permant fixture on the net, web server and all...)
