As part of my reflecting back on
his countless contributions & service to our club, I did a quick search of
the TPC website, and this was very revealing, as it only further confirmed
Sigi's superstar status:
His interests and specialties
(from the TPC member directory):
computing: Word crunching, On-line dictionaries, Various
utilities, Building my own computer
interests: Classical music, Electronics and other gadgets
help with: No specialties, but I know a bit of everything... and
I know somebody who knows! <g>
Sigi's officer positions:
- Membership Chair, 1993-1995
- Mr. Akihabara, 1995-2002
