Brush with greatness

Dig on Larry Olson, my father's wife's long-time friend, by clicking on this link:

Government Technology magazine article

If you read the story, it's about Barbara's old friend Larry, who is quite an impressive person. The four of us had lunch at Cafe Josie on 6th in Austin not too long ago and his forceful aura was a reliable indicator of his gravitas. Read the linked story from Government Technology Conference, and you'll see what I mean.

The final paragraph of the GTC article bears repeating (presumably a fair use of copyrighted material):

"We are pleased to have executive practitioners of Mike's and Larry's knowledge and experience join TPI," said Ed Glotzbach, president and CEO of TPI, in a company release. "These industry-recognized leaders will provide our public-sector clients leading-edge vision and practical guidance on overcoming challenges within their operating environments and making realistic changes in transforming their organizations. It's a growing need for which we are positioned to provide innovative advice."
