That's a who's who of Unix. I didn't know you were part of that Pugs,
I am jealous. I feel fortunate that I got to be part of what I think
of as the good Sun, the 4.x days, to me, that felt as close to Bell Labs
as you could get in that time.
You've lived through a lot.
I did twist arms to be lm(a)sun.com and got to be lm(a)cs.stanford.edu, I miss
lm(a)sun.com a lot, so short, Unix people like short, it's "ls" not
"list".
It really was the best part of my career but it is nothing like what I
imagine being at the end of an uucp email address ending up at Bell Labs.

Sweet, thanks for that.
That was before research!rob arrived, but most of those names were still

Yeah, but Rob, where was Fred? I was there in Acoustics Research (not
127!) then, using R70 for UCDS.
I'm pretty sure I distinctly recall Fred Grampp being around then.

Not in (1)127 yet. He was transferred in some time after I arrived. Not
sure quite when. Mid-80s maybe.

Well this lines up with my records:
slovax$ call ritchie
Dennis Ritchie 908-582-3770 (W/bell labs)
Same as the extension listed below.
Dennis was one of the well known people who taught me that if you had
done your homework, he was more than willing to talk to you. I had some
question about inodes (I think, it was something in the kernel) and we
traded emails for a while and then he sent me his phone number saying
"this will be faster". Kind of blew my mind at the time.

Cheers, Ralph. 
1:12 a.m.
That reminds me of a story from my lab days. Many years ago worked in a routine
environmental lab in receiving at the time and one day we received an errant cooler filled
with NORM (low-hazard possibly radioactive soil), complete with yellow and black rad
hazard stickers.
Being that we weren't a radiological facility, it had some folks quite perturbed.
After all, they were bench chemists, not rad experts. Luckily our safety guy had been
around the block and then some. He disappears back to the back warehouse for a little
while and comes back with a Geiger counter nobody knew we even had. He had a quick lesson
with folks, waved the wand over the material showing no detectable counts, and everyone
went about their day.
The best part of it all was our Geiger counter being "found", we had quite a bit
of fun with it later on when a coworker went in for some thyroid work and returned with a
throat full of Iodine-131.
Several years later I was on an assignment in Richland, WA and had the privilege of some
residency at one of our rad facilities at the time. Tying it back to TUHS, they were the
only lab in our network that still had an old UNIX box lying around from our pre-Windows
days (Sun I think). The technical manager Ken was also quite enthused to show me a bunch
of old DEC documentation in a closet. They've since closed. I wish I had been
around for that, someone made off with all the "for disposal" tech stuff before
I caught wind of it :(
- Matt G.
P.S. If you're ever flying over the tri-cities area (central WA), try and scope out
Hanford from a distance. It's a bit haunting to be honest. The facilities are in a
general state of demolition/remediation, then down the way you have the current Columbia
River nuclear plant, and a field of who knows what between. Definitely a sight to see for
any radiological enthusiasts, I'll make it on one of those tours someday!

I was born in Richland, company town for Hanford. It had the same
nuclear technology as Chernobyl.
Some would say that explains a lot. :)

P.S. If you're ever flying over the tri-cities
area (central WA), try and scope out Hanford from a distance. It's a bit haunting to
be honest. The facilities are in a general state of demolition/remediation, then down the
way you have the current Columbia River nuclear plant, and a field of who knows what
between. Definitely a sight to see for any radiological enthusiasts, I'll make it on
one of those tours someday!
