He resides in Israel. While in Atlanta he will be doing a couple author events. AW has asked if we (ale) are interested in hosting him for an event, I am pretty sure I can secure the Auditorium at the law school for this event, BUT what I need is a good idea as to how many people would be interested in this and would actually attend. I think the tentative week for his visit to Atlanta would be the week of May 18th.

	Another data point: he began working on awk/gawk while attending and
working at Emory....
