Let me add my voice to those expressing sadness at the passing of Rob
Kling. I was a member of Rob's "Computers and Society" course that he
taught at the University of Wisconsin the first year after he arrived from
Stanford (1971?). I remember fondly the intellectual range of that seminar
(course materials ranged from readings from Jacques Ellul to a performance
of Firesign Theater's "We're All Bozos on This Bus"), and the rather
unconventional class meetings at his house. Requiesat in Pacem.
