[Lex Computer & Tech Group/LCTG] Charlie Holbrow

[Ted Kochanski]

All,

It's not much but I propose the following:

We announce that the Lexington Computer & Technology Group has
established the *Charles_H._Holbrow*
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_H._Holbrow> Lecture -- to be
presented annually by a distinguished *science educator* whose "work"
espouses the principles and values of Prof. Holbrow

Perhaps we could even get someone with a fat wallet to put some cash behind
the the award

Ted
