Sunday morning came and quite a few people were in the hotel lobby saying their goodbyes. Mike and I were waiting for a shuttle to take us to the airport, finally it arrived and we grabbed our bags and jumped in. About 5 minutes into the ride I turned around and noticed a couple in the back seat. "This guy looks familiar" I thought to myself. This guy turned out to be Michael Sugarman, one of the founders of the NSA (NSP as it was known at the time). Although he was and is well known by a lot of people, Mike and I had never met him, even though we all lived within 20 minutes of each other in the Bay Area.
