  1. I wish I had had the opportunity to meet Gary. I was at the gathering in Boulder in 1982, but I don't think Gary made the trek. There are such a precious few still alive with any deal connection to Jack, Allen, Bill and Neal and all the rest. I was so fortunate to be able to attend and meet Allen.
