I was trying to get a hold of him for years. People who knew him kept saying they'd get me in touch, never did.

His name pops up a lot during the 60s and 70s as an author on numerous articles about networks, often regarding many competing, now defunct alternative networks to the Internet.

Examples of scans I personally made: https://siliconfolklore.com/internet-history/farber-datamati... and https://siliconfolklore.com/internet-history/farber-datamati...

He's one of those people where you go through archival industry journals and are like "oh look there he is again"

For instance, SNOBOL https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SNOBOL

IP-Asia met every week via Zoom. Several other people whose names appear in the same literature frequented it too. Pop in tonight for the final session?

		His mailing list was public. No harm in sending the link to the meeting for last week, I guess. You can find the Zoom meeting coordinates there; they were reused every time. https://ip.topicbox.com/groups/ip/T2c0d41d801eaa76c-Mbdfe983...
