Lou is a truly great person. I've known him since 1976 when I audited 
his class in world music at San Jose State, and until the early '90s 
I'd see him every summer at the Cabrillo Music Festival.  He recently 
lost his life partner, Bill Colvig, so it's good to know he's 
carrying on with energy and good spirit.

If you hang out long enough you eventually end up in books. I have 
small mentions in a couple of them, in connection with my Max 
programming.
