He was a REMF.
I think he manned a typewriter. Bumping for later. I did like how Janet Clayton from the LAT slammed Davis on his fetching personality.
His wooden attempts at "humor," followed by stoney silence, pretty much demonstrated what she was talking about. I watched him die three times in a row. It was painful.
A formidable weapon when used as a bludgeon -- especially those 60s IBMs. Ouch!
