October 2019: Yet another update … after only 5 years! Adobe Contribute is defunct. I’m sorta/kinda editing in MS Word.

July 2014: This homepage is being updated after a nine year hiatus. Contribute has become an Adobe product and the search for a favorite customer quote continues...

March 2005: This homepage has been updated ... for the first time since 2001.  I used some unfamiliar software (Macromedia Contribute) but it worked OK.

However I am still looking for a "favorite customer quote or similar piece of text" over there >>>>

"Insert a favorite customer quote or similar piece of text here."


— Satisfied Customer

Despite 29+ years of teaching and perhaps as many as 4,000 students in various classes, Satisfied Customer   has yet to appear on my roster.

Stupid Quotes - reportedly said in lecture.

An Ancient Relic - a PDF file of my PhD thesis (more or less)

This differs from the MIT library copy because the mitthesis latex class has changed since 1990.
