Larry worked with my father at Northrop. They were working on a computer program to study fluid flow called TWIRL. Twirl stood for The Way It Really Looks. This was back in the early 70s so the computer was a huge mainframe. They worked on it over Christmas Vacation they were so excited about it. My father recalls it as one of the best moments of his life. They really had a great time working on it together. They were both very creative and inventive and had great sense of humor.
