Kent is an excellent teacher. He is patient and knows how
to lead people to understanding. Patterns are about conveying
knowledge, this is also known as teaching. Therefore, Kent is
good at writing patterns and teaching. <a href="mailto:sdrew@pulsar.sps.mot.com">mailto:sdrew@pulsar.sps.mot.com</a>
<p>Kent is also my father. He is the guy who takes out the trash, drives me to the bus and provides me with occational cash. He is fun to argue with.

I met Kent at OOPSLA 97 in Atlanta. He and <a href="http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?ErichGamma">ErichGamma</a> did a tutorial called "AdvancedDesignWithPatternsAndJava<a href="http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?edit=AdvancedDesignWithPatternsAndJava">?</a>". Great job! They left me with the impression that they were seriously considering collaborating on a new book on Patterns and Java. I wonder what is the status of the <a href="http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?JavaAndPatternsBook">JavaAndPatternsBook</a>?

Re: XP books. Boy am I stupid. When I finally got my head out long enough for two or more oxygen molecules to reach my brain at the same time, I realized that the <a href="ExtremeWay.html">ExtremeWay</a> to write a book series is to write the first book covering the most important stories, and then later on write some more books if necessary. Please contribute to the <a href="http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?XpBookStories">XpBookStories</a>.

<em>Kent, regarding your comment that "all methodologies are based on fear". Would I be way off if I were to guess your </em>fear<em> was the ChangeCostCurve<a href="http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?edit=ChangeCostCurve">?</a>? ---<a href="http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?BenAveling">BenAveling</a></em>
<p>No, my fears are more about not spending enough time with my kids, growing away from my wife, and dying young of heart trouble like my grandfather. The ChangeCostCurve<a href="http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?edit=ChangeCostCurve">?</a> I know how to handle.
