Re: John Conway is dead

[spudboy100 via Everything List]

 He is simply dead in this subdomain. All his information has merely jumped to 
another domain where he lives; having drinks now, with Schrodinger, Bryce 
DeWitt, Hugh Everett the Third, John Archibald Wheeler, and company. Do I 
really think this? Naw, just a bit of a nice thought when crap occurs that one 
has zero control over.

Yes, it is sad. He dies from the corona virus, aged 82. RIP John.

A wonderful mathematician. He wrote many nice books, also. His book with 
Richard Guy “The book of Numbers" is a little chef d’oeuvre.

I heard about this on the day. I guess I should have posted this. The book 
by Conway and Sloane, Sphere Packing, Lattices and Groups is great, and 
mine has lots of sticky notes coming out of it.

There was another tribute of similar ilk, but I can't find it now.
