Hi DC, All,That message I sent to the list was back in July of 2005. John's Coutures son at the time is the one who informed me of John's health and activities. I was sort of worried about John at the time (he is not as young as even some of the oldest here), so I inquired. His son was good to reply on his status (his son was also helpful with getting the JHCTES program on line). I haven't talked with John personally in a long time. John is at an age I hope the rest of us attain (not likely). John and I had many conversations and he is certainly a favorite for me. We had our differences here and there which usually came from our programs, but we talked a lot about them, equations, etc.., including personal tid bits.
John C. is a great engineer and a valuable brain in the world of coiling. If his health is good, I think it's only a matter of time before John returns to what he knows well (coiling). I hope so!
Take care, Bart DC Cox wrote:
We all wish John well. I met him when he lived near San Diego, approx 20 yrs ago. He was a great engineer and always enjoyed tinkering with coils, etc. Regards, D.C. Cox
