You need to be an Internet Mail history buff to find the video from that link...

Thank you for sharing that reminiscence.
Peter was an amazing person to have known.
Getting another glimpse into all the scheming that he had to come up with to make progress in a world of ignorant decision makers made my day.  Those kinds of approaches have likely also made him well-prepared for his later work in bringing the Internet to the post-soviet countries.

Grüße, Carsten
