Talking about famous people, when I was living at the dorms
here at UCLA, I was walking back one evening from chemistry
lab.  My path cut across the Los Angeles Tennis Center.  I
ran into Martina Navratilova, who asked for directions.  :)
I didn't realize who it was.  It was late and I had to rush
back to write my report on my Laser 128 (to make this
Apple II relevant).
