Wolf) Date: Fri, 28 Sep 2018 09:37:23 -0700 Subject: SPUG: Visiting Tim Maher Message-ID: <68C69912-0ECF-4D20-80F0-6C696B8D8776@att.net> Earlier this week, I visited Tim Maher. It would mean a lot to him if you would, too. Because I live about 6 blocks from Tim in Ballard, I used to see him in the neighborhood with his wife, Yeshe. Over the years, his Perl (and other) training slowed down (as did mine), so we'd trade stories about post-SPUG activities. Tim had begun teaching psychology, and enjoying his music. Later, he claimed to be officially retired. When I saw him at the beginning of the summer, he was using a walker. Last week, I saw Yeshe and she told me he was no longer leaving the house. One of the things I liked best about SPUG was that there was a sense of community, not merely a shared technical interest. The connections I made at SPUG and OSCON were more than professional networking. They were a critical part of my life and my self-identity. My wife Wendy is fond of saying "Community is who shows up". In its prime, SPUG was a community with a lot of people showing up. Tim was a catalyst for that happening. Even though NY claims to be the first Perl Monger group, SPUG has bragging rights to the first Perl _user_ group, having started meeting before the PM moniker took root. Tim was instrumental in this, and even won a White Camel award for this community building work. Now, "Community is who shows up" has a different flavor. Tim has difficulty speaking, but he can still understand conversations around him. And he definitely appreciates the company. If you can show up for a visit, it would make a huge difference. Feel free to contact me if you'd like to hear more, or call Yeshe on (206) 789-8924 to schedule a time. Thanks, SPUG. -- Michael R.

We're unloading soooo many books that we've enjoyed, but can no longer keep. It would bring me great joy if these Perl books could find a good home. They're yours if you want them, but let me know soon. We're moving on Saturday (TOMORROW). And... as I mentioned in the previous message, SPUG has been a large part of what made our Seattle stay so wonderful. Thanks for all the SPUGness. Best, Michael P.S. If you have contacts in Australia, especially in the Sydney area, please make a connection. My LinkedIn account (see below) would be best. Thanks. P.P.S. We're initially set for a 6-12 month engagement, but are open to staying longer if it works out. After all, we landed in Seattle on a 6-month sabbatical and have stayed for 16 years. The road goes ever onward.... -- Michael R.
