Eugene Burger (R.I.P) wrote articles to the Magic. I'd like to know when did he do that? I have only newer magazines 2008-> and couldn't find any. Sure there may be some but I browsed quite quickly. I would appreciate if somebody could tell me something about Eugene's articles.

Thank you very much, Rik. These examples tell that his articles probably were deeper than just a column.

I should also add that Eugene was a contributing editor from 1991 to 1994. He wrote some the reviews in those editions and a few letters.

Our great patter debate was a fascinating exercise. Eugene told me several years ago that we should revisit it for Genii because he had changed his mind and come around to my views on the subject. Alas, I thought there would be time.
