I have one and will keep my eye out for it.  DO NOT HOLD YOUR BREATH.  It'll be quicker if I ask around at UCSC.

Bill was half time (each) in the Astronomy and Phys. boards of study.  He died while returning from a white water rafting trip through the Grand Canyon.  I had looked forward to his teaching the optics course the following quarter. (I was to do the lab.)
