He fooled Death, staved off it's dance
it beat him yet, Longinus' Lance
now the bet is in our hands
perhaps we'll get another chance:
Wise for ever, still funny now
The party's on the day of Tau
He chose a funny day to die
A perfect day: the day of Pi.

If a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a manor of thy friend's or of thine own were: any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind, and therefore never send to know for whom the bells tolls; it tolls for thee." -John Donne I'll miss him and his wonderful stories of the cosmos.
- jxramos 9y agoI've been long familiar with that poem, but for the first time today I realize that its connected to our nature in how we're brought into the world. The long succession of mother and fathers springing forth new life. No human has ever just sprung up independent from prior human life or some lesser organism.
