[Nc140] Rob Crassweller

[Gregory Lang]

Hi All,

We have another second-hand source that indicated Rob had an unspecified head injury that will prevent him from giving a couple of talks at conferences in Ukraine in early August - the email was looking for suggested replacements. That email came in shortly before Mosbah’s initial NC140 email.

Granted, there are probably a lot of folks who wouldn’t want to give a couple of seminars in Ukraine at this particular time in history, but I wouldn’t peg Rob for one to invent a head injury story just to get out of it, so here’s hoping he’s okay and recovering if indeed in need of surgery! Then again, in this day and age of “fake news”, it could be a Russian hacking plot to keep an expert like Rob from passing his apple knowledge on desperate growers in Ukraine…...

I haven’t been able to track this down on a Friday in July… I saw him last week and he never said anything about being laid up for a bit. So let’s keep a good thought that all is well. I left him a voicemail and told him to dispel the rumor asap.
