Wow, that's very sad and surprising to hear. I just heard from him a few
days ago about a copyright question. Several years ago, Richard acted as
my mentor for a mentor program that I did. What a friendly and
knowledgeable person he was! I'll think of him whenever I walk by the huge
Edison "Gothic" phonograph on display here -- donated via Richard from the
Yale Library.
