(I should explain for those who are unfamiliar with the reference: one of Pournelle's Laws was "Never trust a computer you can't lift.")
And now my personal JP story... The one time I met Jerry Pournelle was when we peed together.
I was in the men's room at one of the West Coast Computer Faires when Jerry walked in and used the urinal next to me. We had a nice little conversation while we did our business.
And thankfully for me and the other men nearby, even though Jerry was quite tipsy on that good convention beer, he never lost his aim!
May you be able to lift all the computers now.
