5.17 Who was Larry Lippman? (sci.chem)
When sci.chem was formed (1988?), there were only a few posts per week, and
a considerable number were requests for information. Larry Lippman soon
established his superb practical and theoretical chemical credentials, and
set about responding to those plaintive pleas for information. His posts
were excellent examples of informative, educational responses delivered in
a friendly, helpful style. His posts demonstrated how knowledgeable sci.chem
posters could respond to requests in such a way that all readers would
understand, regardless of formal chemical training. He died in late 1991
in his early 40s. Unfortunately, only a few of his posts to sci.chem have
survived. If you have any of his posts I would appreciate a copy, as I am
collecting them to be made available as a single "Lippman posts" file.
