Some things are just hard to imagine.  I mean, Sai was so easy going that I
can't imagine him being married to someone like that.  I wonder if she keeps
him in line.  We had a unix class with about 8-10 people in it and he was
just the best teacher.  Everyone thought he was a walking unix manual the
way he could answer questions.  Do they still teach at LSU?  I always
thought that he would have gone on to something much bigger and better than
just teaching with all the knowledge that he had.
