Yuri returned an unopened can of orange juice to the waiter the day I
got to know him. He did this in the middle of a live demonstration of
Panorama's style sheet mechanism at the breakfast table of a Chicago
hotel. The demonstration was impressive enough, but the returning of
the can -- with clear instructions that the can should be put back on
the shelf -- is what I will remember best of Yuri.
