Fallows On Crichton
A judicious tribute:
I loved hearing from him about oddball "practical" matters. For
instance, height: he appeared to be nearly 7 feet tall, and explained
to me (6'2") that up until 6'6" height was an advantage, but after that
it was a big inconvenience -- door frames, beds, airplane seats. Or,
getting ready for book writing bursts: He said he removed complications
from his life while writing by having exactly the same food at every
meal, so he never had to waste time deciding what to eat. He was a tech
enthusiast, and the most passionate Mac advocate I have encountered.
