I'm kinda in the same boat as Warren -- I'm 34, and I remember that one of the first things that I read on the NANOG list (having signed up towards the end of my first summer internship) was the news of Jon's death. I'm also with Laurence -- the fact that a lot of younger people said "who" is an opportunity for instruction, not a reason to abandon memorials. More importantly, speaking of younger folks on the list, this is a good reminder to ask yourself: "What can I do to be the kind of inspirational figure that Jon was?" Sure, it's a high bar, but those are worth jumping for. -- Josh Sholes On 10/16/13 3:32 AM, "Celeste Anderson" <celestea () usc edu> wrote:
Rodney, et al., Am glad to be an old person who does remember Jon. If anyone has special remembrances of Jon and his contributions to networking, please send to me offline. We are preparing some material to be presented at a tribute later this month.

This world is *so* different to the way it was. Getting old sucks.
