Since Cameron Claussen couldn't make the party from Colorado, we decided to document the party in photographs for her. I borrowed an Apple QuickTake 100 from the BBN Education department and shot some pictures. Here they are. They are unedited and in chronological order. You can click on the small pictures to see larger images.
If you are interested in why some of these look dark on your PC or UNIX machine, read about gamma correction and monitors here or here . Since I produced these images on a Macintosh, they look good there. If you don't have a Macintosh, why not?
Here is some of the food including the giant fortune cookie that Cameron sent.
Here are Susan Coombs' kids wishing Larry a "HPPY LARRY" as I'm sure we all do!
Bob Pyle takes a break from building horns to hobnob with Net Analysis.
Here is some old adv-dev paraphenalia including the "tombstone" of building 20 nametags, a custom Designer T-Shirt, a DesigNet(sm) screen shot and a group photo of Network analysis.
Gerry and Stephen. (N.B. It is not jjd in the background. I don't have a beard!)
Peg signs one of Larry's cards.
JR and Fred Serr discuss JR rejoining BBN in order to work on the Milnet follow-on contract.
In case you haven't seen larry in a while, please note that it is Larry in this picture without a beard. I'm sure Larry is here trying to encourage JR and Andy Latto to shave their beards off.
Susan and A-M wish they had some photographs to put in this photo album.
The Giant Fortune Cookie from Cameron gets opened.
Larry reads his fortune and is enlightened.
John Zinky talking with Bob and Gerry.
Frederick Hirsch and Ed Frankenberry arrive. Too bad the flash from this camera doesn't reach more than 9 feet.
Someone grabbed the camera from me and took my picture with Susan.
Susan Coombs discusses Larry's Lisp programming style to the group.
Susan talks about how Larry comments the code. Larry is surprised there were any comments!
Susan saying nice things about dear, departed Larry. RIP.
