Roshan McArthur

When I was growing up, there was no internet. Luckily, I had Dad. My father Tom McArthur was my search engine long before Google existed, answering questions that kept me awake at night, often with long, intricate stories. If he didn't know an answer, he would consult one of the many dictionaries and reference books that lined the shelves of our home. There was no such thing as a casual question with Dad; he took my curiosity very seriously.

汤姆麦克阿瑟:个人纪念

当我长大的时候,没有互联网。幸运的是,我有爸爸。早在谷歌出现之前,我的父亲汤姆麦克阿瑟就是我的搜索引擎,他回答的问题常常让我彻夜难眠,而且往往是冗长而错综复杂的故事。如果他不知道答案,他会查阅我们家书架上的许多词典和参考书之一。没有随便问爸爸这样的问题。他非常重视我的好奇心。
