Can't believe that he kept going all these years since selling SoftAid. I have learned a ton from reading his books, articles back in the days of "Embedded Systems Programming" magazine, and the newsletter. I sent him an email earlier this year mentioning that he's the only person I've ever heard of triggering an EPIRB (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emergency_position-indicating_...) three times when not in an ocean race :-)

A retirement well earned!
