Well, 25 years ago, he worked down the hall from me at Microsoft, writing docs for the Fortran compiler. Not sure if he ever wrote docs for the C/C++ compiler that I worked on (this was pre-Visual C++ or maybe just as VC got started), nor do I remember how long he was there. But I do remember being thrilled that a Nebula and Campbell award winner was a co-worker.
