David McDonald

I believe that the link to David McDonald in the sentence "Fahlman acted as the thesis advisor for Donald Cohen, David McDonald, David S. Touretzky, Skef Wholey, and Justin Boyan." is incorrect since the David McDonald cited died in 1979, two years after Fahlman received his doctorate. Charlie Kreitzberg 22:23, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
