Harvey used to be a mainstay here, and his name came up in one of those
gone-off-track discussions. I realized that I hadn't heard anything from
or about him for quite some time and I always worry about people who are
a little older than me.



Older than you?! Thought that's an impossibility!!
I've met many people, even in person, via usenet.
One regular guy we teased in a graphics group, suddenly disappeared, read he RIPed!

e-mail to him bounced back from a full mailbox,
and I didn't get an answer a couple of times when I called.

I called him again today and his wife Karen answered the phone. She
assured me that Harvey is quite alive and, although slowing down due to
the usual things that happen when you get old, is doing well and keeping
busy. He was napping at the time I called, but woke up while I was still
talking with Karen, so we had a little chat.

He's still working in the studio and has started playing music for his
own enjoyment again. His MCI 536 console that I helped him install a
dozen or so years ago went to a new studio in Nashville through a
convoluted set of trades and he has an Otari console waiting on a set of
multi-pin connectors before he can install it.

Anyway, he remembers us and is happy to be remembered.
