plenty of Heathers out there -- probably someone who worked at Heathkit 
-- who can help.

The fellow is the one who originally started the Heathkit computer 
line. As I understand it, he developed the original H-8. When it 
turned out to be a success, he got squeezed completely out by the team 
of Plummer and Yeager. He moved over into the educational group, and 
developed the 6800-based training kit, among other things. He was a 
super-nice guy, and deserved a lot better than he got. There's a 
certain ironic pleasure, though, in the fact that the educational group 
is the only part of Heathkit to have survived.

The only name I'm able to come up with is, "Lou." Can anyone supply a 
last name? 

As long as I'm dredging for names, I'm also trying to remember the VP 
for QA ca. 1978. His first name was Claude -- another super-nice guy.
