Elsig, as he was known to an appreciative audience of alt.tv.MASH fans well into this century, was the mind and the heart behind the MASH that I knew, and probably you knew. His wit, his kindness, his range of experience- all made our Monday nights special for long after he was even still involved with the show.
If you've never read Laughing Matters, his memoir of more than half a century in comedy and production, treat yourself. You will laugh, and think, and know some of your favorite MASH scenes even better than you do now.
Abbysinia, Larry.
