It is with deep regret that I announce the death of my friend and colleague 
Gerhard Postpischil, whom some of you may know from here, CBTTAPE.ORG or 
Hercules. Someone told his son Eric "You sound like your father." - I can think 
of no greater compliment. Gerhard was a stickler for accuracy and always strove 
to write 
tight code. He was also a good friend to me and my children, and we will miss 
him.

Condolences to you, Shmuel. I only knew Gerhard through his posts on this list, 
but I found him to be knowledgeable and helpful.
