I knew Mark briefly in 1980, when he first moved to Albuquerque. Had only seen him once since then, always meant to get in touch. Won’t have the chance now. I did write about him in my (now discontinued) column in the Seattle Times, although the message was oblique. FYI http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/businesstechnology/2004283810_ptinbo15.html

Rebecca, this is one of the nicest comments I have ever received. Thank you so much. I’m actually choked up right now and don’t really know what else to say. I miss Marc every day.

I was just in San Francisco to attend a seminar that Ismael - a friend of your father’s and myself - put on today about extreme productivity and I can tell you that Marc’s name came up more than a few times.

In fact I directed people to look for a number of his posts including the one about your mother and the iPhone and another one about how he got everything to sync up (which, by the way, he is still the only person on the planet to have actually figured out how to do this using the iPhone, Gmail, mac mail and I think also Outlook - for most of us, just getting two things to kind of sync is an accomplishment to put that into perspective…)

Oliver, this is amazing. My dad would be so unbelievably proud of you. My geek factor is nowhere near that of my dad’s, my brother’s, or yours, but I seriously look forward to following your progress in this endeavor and future ones. I think you’ve totally hit the nail on the head as far as his vision for this project. I’m sure that somewhere, he’s enjoying your participation immensely, and chuckling to himself that GTD may force you to arrive somewhere on time.

We miss you. Hope things are well.

Thanks Oliver for a great post. See you over at the new blog. It sounds like a wonderful place to learn and grow like Marc Orchant would like us all to do.
