Edward Lorenz, 1917-2008
Edward Lorenz, most famous for research concerning the sensitivity of high-level outcomes to seemingly insubstantial variations in initial conditions (the so-called “butterfly effect“ [link to http://www.cmp.caltech.edu/~mcc/chaos_new/Lorenz.html no longer works] ), died April 16 in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
Much more information concerning Lorenz’s life and work is available via Wikipedia.

Where were you when Robert Anton Wilson moved on?
In San Jose. Remembering the one time I heard him speak in person. And how much I owed him.
