   Where is Jean Parrot these days?   
      
   He was a great help to me too. He sent over on old Win98 laptop     
   that might be suitable for a library user terminal that I had     
   in mind. He sent me a couple of routers (that supported serial/    
   dialup) connectors to a modem, which he had outgrown.  I sent     
   him some supplies of printer inkjet refills that I was not     
   interested in using anymore.   
      
   He was quite a fine presence in this echo.   
      
   I know that he was already quite up in years when I last     
   remembered.
