RE: [PSUBS-MAILIST] 2003 Award Nominations

["Alec Smyth" <Asmyth@changepoint.com>]

I'd like to nominate John Maynard for the Kittredge Award for the
beautiful execution of his K350. He hauled it an awful long way to
attend the convention, and was infinitely patient with all of us who
crawled over, under, and inside it for days on end. I think everyone
benefited enormously from seeing how he had built so many details that
are lost in print or on screen.


Thanks,

Alec
