As I recall, Bob was released from National some months ago, to my 
astonishment.

I think early reports are generally loaded with errors.

  In Heaven, you will have no gender.  You will have no gadgetry.
You will have no desires of the flesh.

 Not that anyone here would have a grasp of it.  They cannot even get
their current consciousness together worth a shit.

species is.

  I could list several in this newsgroup that have a very low likelihood
of joining the group.

  You know...  Like Jeffery Dahmer supposedly repented before he was
killed or suicided.

  First off...  it was not likely sincere, and secondly, the suicide
would negate it.

  The lord said that anyone who believes. That is the trick though.  The
worst guy in the world can go, but the likelihood of those words
sincerely passing his lips before he croaks is very low.

  There are some here that are so full of themselves that they surely
already think they are sin free.

 I won't be seeing them at the lawn darts court.

  What if you and your spouse, girlfriend or boyfriend both make it to
Heaven?

  If that ends up lacking pleasures of body sensations or even good-

And it will be fantastically boring after a very short while. In the

The main selling point in antiquity was that you would not always be in 
danger of starving to death nor could you be killed again.

The key point of the "jam tomorrow" promise was that starving serfs 
would loyally follow their kings into battle because the established 
Church took 10% of what little they had off them and told them that the 
King was God's representative on Earth. Failure to follow His orders 
immediately condemned you to an eternity of Hellfire.

A cunning scheme and probably the canonical "jam tomorrow" scam.

It's modern equivalent in a more materialistic world is the Nigerian 419 
scam - which promises a shorter wait for your share of $20M.

Assuming you had complete control over the state of your own 
consciousness in Heaven, you could decide that contemplating the number 
1 was the most interesting thing in the universe to do, and do that for 
eternity.  If by some fluke you did become bored, you could move on to 
the number 2, and so on.  If for some reason the concept of numerals 
does not exist in Heaven, perhaps one could instead contemplate the 
empty set, and then the set of the empty set, and then the set of the 
empty set which contains the empty set...

I would nominate Phil Hobbs. His writings on photodetectors are new, 
useful, interesting and well written and are worth 100 ABC books chewing 
trivial old stuff.

Writing a book makes you an expert?

Bob Pease was in the MIT Class of 1961 (I'm Class of 1962).

I can recall seeing Bob, all dressed out in lederhosen and backpack,
charging up the stairs in Building 10, multiple steps at a time,
screaming like "Roosevelt" in that old classic movie "Arsenic and Old
Lace".

I can also recall thinking, "What a weirdo" ;-)

It was distressing to me to see the accident report calling Bob, "an
elderly gentleman"... we're the same age :-(

I'd just re-read "What's All This Femtoampere Stuff?" a week or so
back. (wanted to revisit the triboelectric stuff)

Pease was a character.  I s'pose Widlar and Williams (Tony) and
Williams (Jim) needed needed one more, for doubles.

Shame, for us.

  Dumbfuck!  The Brewster family had an older brother in it and HE was a

I met Bob a couple of times in the mid 2000s, when his analog seminars 
stopped in Long Island, and we corresponded occasionally thereafter.  I 
have an autographed poster of him on my lab wall.  I learned a lot from 
his app notes (as well as Widlar's, Dobkin's, Yamatake's, and Williams's).

He won't be writing any more, which is sad.

So to all you old farts with good stuff to pass on--get busy writing.

Cheers

I talked with him soon after it happened.  He was _not_ happy with 
National's management at that point.  Glad to hear they made up.

Is this a unique event? Have there been other accidents at that
spot?!!

http://goo.gl/maps/1IZ6

A fitting tribute to RAP would be to discover one major hidden source
of car accidents.  Then get it publicized and fixed.  (re. the chain
story)

I don't know if they did an autopsy, but I'd bet it would show a
"health event"... diabetes can make you prone to heart attacks.

(BTW, I did a similar "chain event" in my '77 280Z in an unlighted
restaurant parking lot around 1980.  But my reflexes were faster and I
just scratched the hood ;-)

It might not have been a heart attack or stroke, as diabetes can also cause 
impaired mental function, blurred vision, and other effects that could 
explain an accident such as this. Either hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia can 
cause major problems. Also significant may be the fact that Bob was late to 
the memorial event and he was in a highly stressed state. I don't know if 
his not wearing a seat belt contributed to his death, or if that was typical 
for him. However tragic, and whatever the cause, it was a blessing that he 
died instantly and did not suffer.

Look closely at google maps above.  It appears that if you're not
expecting the sudden 160deg turn, you'll do exactly what the Mercury
News described: sail across the winery driveway and hit a tree.  (I'm
assuming I have the correct spot here, and he was coming from the
south.)   At that location, I wonder what the warning signs and
guardrails look like.  Or if there are any.

We don't have google earth here at work, so I can't check whether the
highway was downhill at that point.

How would one access the accident records for a location?   Find out
whether it's a "death curve" or not?

  They already know.  It is called operator error.

  Fixing it would require that we actually test drivers and require that
they actually know how to fucking drive and follow the rules and laws
surrounding the task.

  About 40% of every driver on US (maybe worldwide)roads is incompetent
for the task.

  It should be required that a STUDENT (while the brain is still growing)
take 2 YEARS of driver ethics courses BEFORE the driver training course,
and BEFORE they are EVER permitted to actually sit in the driver's
position in the car.

  The problem is lame, lackadaisical governments that simply hand out a
license to any fuckhead.  Mainly so they can then use the retarded
piggery to suck cash out of the dopes that are so bad at it that they
actually endanger others.  So much for the safety of those of us that DO
know how to drive and DO deserve to retain a license to do so.

  About 30% of cops don't know how to fucking drive either.  The ones
that do only do because they listened intently to the instructionals.

Funny, you remain always wrong,  Bob P. wrote a book about safe
driving.

Hmm.  So you have considered praying there ain't no heaven and cursing
that there ain't no hell?  Sorry, that song phrase just keeps going off in
my head.  I adulterated it a bit.

Since this occurred in calif. you could start with "TASAS" in a search
engine.  But this is not on a State highway, you would use this to
find/get to the local accident databases.

This IS NOT a high speed road (I've been up there eons ago).  Pease
was an experienced driver.  And has lived that area for how long?  I
just doubt that the situation caught him by surprise... but a heart
blockage can... BTDT (July, 1998).

Guilty by insinuation. And also an admission of being off-topic. Plus 
childish profanity.

Certainly not a fitting tribute to our beloved friend, but perhaps to be 
expected from the missing prong.
