Sad on two levels.

Very sad to hear about the passing of someone so intelligent and pivotal to what we all do today. Also sad to read that this sort of thing was supported by IBM, who then were a real innovative company changing the world, rather than the listless horde of second rate 'consultants' they are today.

RIP Fran Allen.
