I didn't know his real name, but I talked to him on the phone a couple of times and met him once, briefly, in real life (as "The Professor"). He was a hoot and his wife seemed like a real sweetheart. Sad day for the Chatter. He will surely be missed.
Thank you, Cindi. I know I will miss the Professor. You're right, he was a hoot, but he was also an intelligent, kind and level-headed man. It was probably that level head of his that made him the perfect partner for crazy ole me on the Chatter. I could always count on him to calm me down and make me smile when I got too upset or aggravated with Chatter stuff!
