Doug Pauls very richly deserves to be in the IPC Hall of Fame.



He earned it.



He has contributed immensely to his Industry; he has freely shared his mastery of the craft with his peers and colleagues, and we have all benefited as a result.



In addition to his technical contributions to the trade, many a time we were plunged into the depths of despair (i.e., we were at work) and his wit relieved the drudgery of our everyday existence and provided the much-needed inspiration to plod on. 



Kudos, Doug. Many, many kudos to you, and thank you from us all.



Odin

Subject: [TN] NTC - Reason for No Element Quiz This Week



Hi team! The reason that Clumpy and Kloumpios were not available for Element Quiz duty this week is that the Doug Pauls, the king of the half fractional elements, was the recipient of the IPC Hall of Fame award. A very prestigious honor for Doug's 30+ years of dedicated service to the electronics industry through his participation in industry specifications, committees and committee leadership activities. There will be a good write up on the award on the IPC web page posted sometime in the next couple of weeks.  The boys are in charge of getting his award home in one piece and will be ready for Quiz duty next week. FEQAB salutes Doug on a well deserved honor!
