Hi Mark,
Very nice to see you here! Your review article on sampling scopes is a true classic. I blame and thank you for the happy hours I've spent trying to chase down and then read, all the references you cite. :) I can't imagine the hours you spent amassing all of that information. Simply amazing.
Gabor is a dear friend, one of the last remaining links to that earlier generation, a rarity who knows that "Bartlett bisection" isn't a medical procedure.
Cheers
Tom

I can't resist commenting about:
"If there is a network theorist left on your faculty (very rare these
days),"
In fact, it appears that circuit theory classes have nearly vanished. One
of the few I know of is taught by none other than Gabor Temes:
I find that some of the old classiques, such as Van Valkenburg or Kuo are
truly edifying, for example, conversion from one 2-port form to another.
Great stuff, highly recommended, , etc. Once you've seen transfer
matrices (ABCD), you'll never look at circuit analysis the same way again.
I'll stop before I wax even more ecstatically.

there is a little guest house for you there as well.

Hi Tom,
<SNIP>
A colloquial version of the history was written up by Paul Rako and can
be found here:

I have three comments:
1) This was a wonderful article with a very clear, easy to follow
explanation. The Spice models will allow us to experiment with the
underlying math without worrying about trying to understand the
mathematical equations that always put me to sleep).
2) The hat was not as good as the article :)
3) Next time you are in Seattle I'll take you shopping and make sure you
leave with a proper hat.
