Back in 1983 I was chatting with Dick Coleman, publisher of Traffic
World magazine, when he unexpectedly proposed that I write a column
for the magazine on computer applications in the
transportation/physical distribution industry. "But, Dick, I don't
know all that much about computers," I protested. "You use one,
don't you?" he asked logically. Yes, I did; I'd been running my
consulting business with it for two years. But that didn't, I
explained, make me an expert. "Think about it," he said. That's
typical Coleman; he drops these studiedly casual ideas and just
lets them lay there until you pick them up and wind up doing just
what he wanted you to do all along. Sure enough, the longer I
pondered the notion the more it appealed to me. OK, I wasn't a
computer expert (I'm still not). But I was a computer user, in the
transportation/distribution field; maybe from that perspective I
might have some useful things to say to other
transportation/distribution users and would-be users of computers.
Thus was born the "Computer Software for Transportation" column.
The first one appeared in the April 11, 1983, issue of Traffic
World, and it's been a once-a-month schedule ever since. And thus,
too, was ultimately born this book.
