[ih] Postel's work history

[Steve Crocker]

Iirc, he took a job at mitre washington after completing his PhD.  His
girlfriend at the time took a job in or near Richmond, va, and the rented a
place halfway in between.  Around the same time I was leaving DARPA,
getting married, and moving to ISI -- Aug-Sep 1974 -- I believe Jon was
also   splitting up with his girlfriend and moving to SRI.  He briefly
moved into my DC residence.  I vacated that residence in late September and
began a leisurely cross country trip to ISI with my new bride.  Jon was
gone before then.
