<div dir="ltr">Indeed, congrats to Jacob. Note that he was one of the Expert Reviewers for the proposal for the IEEE Milestone for Utah's Computer Graphics work, and that a bronze plaque was dedicated at the Univ. of Utah on March 24. Jacob, as well as Jeffrey Yost, were in attendance, and I was the IEEE History Committee Advocate for this Milestone. See the extensive documentation for it <a href="https://ethw.org/Milestones:Development_of_Computer_Graphics_and_Visualization_Techniques,_1965-1978">here</a>. Both Jacob's book as well as Alvy Ray Smith's <i>A Biography of the Pixel</i> were important sources for information for this project, and Alvy was a key organizer and participant with me for this 2-day event.<br clear="all"><div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr">_________________________<br>Brian A.
