While not answering your question, but at least somewhat related ..

My Dad went to visit Villchur a few years back. I think he sent me some pictures .. I really should find those! I'll look this afternoon.

Yes, very much so! He'll be 86 in May, and is remarkably sharp and alert. He still conducts research and writes, and he published another book in 2000 entitled, *Acoustics for Audiologists.* Over the years he has published somewhere between 125 and 150 articles and three books, among his many other accomplishments. After leaving AR in 1967, he pretty much left high-fidelity sound reproduction behind and dedicated his time to the field of audiology and hearing-aid research.

Mabye he uses a computer, he would be a great classic speaker fourm member! Although he would be bombarded with questions, if he is willing to answer them, I think it would be cool!
