Default Re: John Bahcall dies

A great loss of a great man. At age 70 he probably had many more productive years ahead of him.

This quote was wonderful:

Quote:
Bahcall never lost his enthusiasm for what he studied. In a February 2003 interview with The Star-Ledger of Newark, he described the universe as "unattractive, implausible, crazy, but beautiful."
So long and thanks for all the science!
