Preparing for 25 Years
Here is a Dave story...<p>I once wrote an early web server using his Frontier Scripting platform which ended up serving up a large corporate website that my company built. Crazy early days of the web. So, I got to &#x27;know&#x27; Dave a bit online.<p>One time I was at a bar (that no longer exists) in San Francisco at some MacWorld event in the 90&#x27;s and Dave showed up. He and I had previously had some emails back and forth that were not necessarily pleasant, probably some silly flame war of some sort that I can&#x27;t remember. I was definitely young and stupid and this was the .com 90&#x27;s!<p>When he was near me, I jokingly said: &#x27;Hey Dave, bite me!&quot; and a bunch of my friends started laughing. Mostly because they knew his reputation for flame wars. He immediately got over the top furious with me, said &#x27;Never say that to me again!&#x27;, walked away and we never spoke again.<p>Anyway, I just want to apologize, I shouldn&#x27;t have said that.
