You know, its funny. I saw John Curan at NANOG this past week and
started thinking about the tribute he gave to Jon back then. Time does
indeed fly with wings of eagles. There are a few men and women in
every great endeavor without which it might well never have come to
pass. Jon was one such. I didn't know him, but I knew the work he did.
Gratitude is well earned.
