    Me too. He was one of the great science authors of our time. _Ontogeny and
    Phylogeny_ and _Wonderful Life_ are among my favorites, difficult as they
    are.

    Hearing of his death hit me kinda like when I heard about Phil Hartman, a
    comedian I admired and respected, passing on several years ago. They both
    were talented folks in their chosen pursuits and will be missed by me.
