I am not able to access the full on-line obituary which I did read this morning
from my paper version of the NY Times, but:
John Wilder Tukey, one of the most influential statisticians of the last 50
years and a wide-ranging thinker credited with inventing the word "software,"
died on July 26 in New Brunswick, N.J. He was 85.
If you get a chance try to read it. Obviously, he was a very interesting fellow.
