Hi,



I was just pondering the idea of "gurus" & I thought the following questions
may hopefully make some interesting & entertaining discussion.



Including people in this newsgroup & others working in the field, whom do
you consider to be the present-day "gurus" in electronics? .I mean the
people who are well known & highly respected for their work & contributions
in this field.



Who is your favourite guru & why?



:) Tony

What ever happened to Tom Moffat?
I think last spotted writing for RadioMag that lasted about 2 issues or
something.

How about Don Lancaster? A very cluey dude indeed.
He's such a guru that it's the title he's bestowed upon himself. See

I've always had a sneaking admiration of old timers such as Reg
Williamson.

Win Hill has to be right up there - being gold plated rocket scientist
is one thing, being able to share that knowledge without assuming airs
