Totally not relevant to the article... but I was amazed to find any online mention of Colby. As a kid in a nowhere town in Florida during the late 60's while in elementary school -- I was exposed to many of his books in the school library. They were absolutely my favorites, and stirred my imagination and interest in technology. Decades later, I'm doing fantastically rewarding tech work... and absolutely owe a hat tip to Colby for piquing my interest in the first place. Wish I'd had the opportunity to thank him. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.9.211.92 (talk) 05:30, 5 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

Yeah, I have to agree. His books were in my nowhere town in Pennsylvania, too. Big and thin, with lots of cool pictures. I remember a gun with a curved barrel that enabled shooting around the corner of a building. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.17.99.213 (talk) 06:01, 29 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

yep. Like so many of us he is lost to time. 2601:201:8B00:4F00:8713:CAB0:55FB:D765 (talk) 07:46, 18 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
