More Gray tribute: Background and links
Posted by Brier Dudley
A few links, if the Jim Gray tribute piqued your interest and you'd like to read more:
The Jim Gray tribute's Web site, with a link to webcasts of the presentations.

I did a shorter piece today on fundraising to honor Gray at Berkeley and the UW. Donations are also supporting the U.S. Coast Guard's San Francisco sector and the University of Minnesota's ambiguous loss program.
