Virtual Home of John "J.D." Dougherty, Computer Science at Haverford College

		My family has been recently devasted by the death of my soulmate and wife Ellen (photo right from Lake Ontario around 1994); we're still working out the logistics for this new path in life, and that includes academics -- if you need to find me, best to contact Kay Warner (610.896.1212; kwarner@haverford.edu) -- Thank you for your understanding, JD
