Heroes and coincidences

One of my greatest heroes is the author/programmer Jeff Duntemann. Back in the days, one of his books and a disk with Borland TP 3.0 paved the road to my programming career.

I had a couple of conversations with JD about RoundAbout, earlier this year. I haven’t been able to work too much on it. Personal business and other stuff basically sidetracked most of my work on the e-mailer. But the conversation, rather, e-mail exchange, between us was surreal. The humble hero and the admiring programmer. It’s a strange world: I mean, Jeff Duntemann.

Anyways, in my hunt for typical Dutch scenes I ended up back at JD’s site. Apparantly in 2002, he visited the city I used to live in three years ago (scroll down to June 21st). Deventer. Jeff, if you read this, I’m pretty sure Alfons would be willing to show you around, next time.
