Accepting voluntary buyout packages this past weekend are a number of long-time Timesers whose bylines are well-recognized by readers. Included among the very dearly departed scribes are George Vecsey, a 30-year veteran whose Sports of the Times Saturday column was widely read; 34-year Times veteran Metro columnist Clyde Haberman, 20-year veteran Sam Dillon,  National Education correspondent; and Nicholas Wade, a 29-year Times veteran Science reporter/editor.
