I was waiting in line for a card punch in Evans Hall (UC-Berkeley) one
night during my freshman year, when I heard these two guys behind me
talking about my hometown, Madison, Wisconsin.  One of them said some-

fifth grade; it was then that I realized that it was my friend Allyn,
who I hadn't seen since I left Wisconsin in '76.  I sure didn't expect
