Ah, New York SHAREs -- in August, the memories. "New York, New York, a helluva town" -- see http://www.curtainup.com/ontown.html. But I digress...
As a native New Yorker I often performed such duties for New York novices. At
some SHARE -- maybe that one! -- I wandered the streets at lunchtime with
very-definite New York novice Kent Taylor. I enjoyed a progressive lunch,
grazing tasty treats from various pushcarts. Kent's eyes got bigger and bigger,
until he finally said that if I kept eating that stuff I'd die. Not a chance I
replied, I'd been raised on it...

For those interested, the history of Edgar...
Edgar Beargen was "conceived" at the very hot and humid SHARE in New York
during August 1988. Long-time VM'er and frequent VMSHARE and VMESA-L
discussion list contributor Rich Greenberg used to bring a bright pink
"VM" sign, posted on an easel atop a table at SCIDS. He could not attend
that particular NY SHARE, so Gabe Goldberg escorted this New York novice
to a local art supply store where we purchased a sheet of brown corrugated
cardboard.
