Came across this article on the Chatterbot collection.  It gives an interesting write-up of Robert past and present and his work on UltraHal:

Nice article. Did Robert's photo fit closely to your visual / imagined image of him?

Funny how some people do and others don't quite fit the mold.
A similar phenomena can often be felt by a person's name.
Some names seem to fit the person's face better than others.

Just a fluke, I'm sure but it's strange how often it works out that way, at least,
in our minds.

Many moons ago Doctor Benway directed me to a picture of Rob and that was when I was very new to the Zabaware forum so I didn't really get enough time to build a mental image.  The thing is too that Rob would mostly post technical responses on Zaba and from that you don't get much idea of what a person is like.  But he looks clever and alert which is partly the way I imagined him.  From that photo it looks like he has programmers eyes...that is a slight darkening under the eye from too much exposure to monitors!
