Hello old friend. It never fails. Weddings and funerals. I met Fred at a HP
World in Denver years ago. Sorry to hear about his passing.

With much love, %043127 for life!

Subject: %043127 just had his bits turned off

Fred White just passed away surrounded by his loving family.

I wonder how many IMAGE/3000 databases (and TurboIMAGE, and IMAGE/SQL) in
the world have had, have, and will continue to have the %043127 flag.  This
includes databases residing in all kinds of backup media.

Alfredo

P.S. 
For non-bits-and-bytes folks who may not be familiar with the legendary
early story of MPE, %043127 is the octal representation of "FW" - the flag
for a normal IMAGE/3000 database (and TurboIMAGE, and IMAGE/SQL).
