  It was with great sadness that I learned from C. P. Vick of the recent
passing of Vladimir K. Karrask.  As one of Dr. Karrask's colleagues said in
Boston, 1991, "we are in the presence of greatness" (referring to Vladimir),
and that he had put the "first marks on paper" in the design of the UR-500.
He had also worked on the N-1, and shared some of that experience with us.

  My deepest condolences to the Karrask family, and to his friends and
associates.  I know he is and will be missed.
