Just back from a brief staycation (it's so lovely in Seattle this time of year) and I found an old post with a few words from the great but late Charles McConathy. Charles was one of the first people to befriend me in the CA tech industry. He founded the very successful and admired MicroNet and was one of the most helpful and konwledgeable people I'd met. 
 
Charles died after a battle with colon cancer in 2004. A month or so before he died, he posted the following message on what he'd learned about staying healthy, which included this summary:
 
"... it is easier to avoid disease than it is to treat it. Do everything you can to protect your health."
More from the tech point of view when I get back to the office. So little to talk about and so much time.
 
Scratch that, reverse... ;)
