Abstract
In our very early days of fuzzy sets and logic, I had an opportunity to spend some time with Professor Ebrahim Mamdani. Therefore, it is my privilege to tell something about him. In this small article I would like to tell a story concerned with the dawn of the fuzzy control age, about something having happened with and also having been influenced by Professor Mamdani from 1975 to 1987.
