For me that would be a lifetime:)

Jack began his BSC in Physics the year I was born: 1952. Jack Crenshaw wrote 
his first computer program in 1956. He thinks he might be beginning to get 
the hang of it. Jack also wrote 16 articles on compiler creation from 1988 
to 1995

Jack and I shot some email between ourselves afew weeks ago. Here are some 
highlights:

Anyway, there was more, but suffice to say that Jack is still very much a 
part of us.
