Jim This is very sad news indeed. Randy was a solid participant of the Purdue discussion list. He was always keen to participate and share his knowledge. The ISAC family will surely miss Randy very much. Condolences to Randy's family and co-workers from Purdue and the entire ISAC Family. Best wishes J.
