Rest in Peace, Jon Postel.

Its good to know that even after leaving NANOG in a huff, you still find it necessary to post useless and irrelevant crap to the list. Stay under your rock from now on.

I guess that whoever posted about it being "useless and irrelevant crap" has absolutely no idea the significance of this man in regards to the net. I feel myself lucky to have actually emailed with him and been mentioned in a public email he sent which I STILL look back at to this day. Oct 16 is also my parents anniversary so its a good/bad day for me every year.
