Bill was trading Internet stocks and options on his home computer when Erin and I moved in next door in 2000. He was 88 at the time - showing no signs of slowing down. In 2002, I was laid-off from my job after the Internet bubble burst. Bill told me that he got laid-off before - IN 1929! He was sharp as a tack, but complained mildly in the past few years that his body "only had a 90-year warranty." What a life. What a fun character. He will be missed.
