Howard Adelman

Completely by accident I discovered yesterday that Howard Adelman had died... a bit over six months ago. I was taken aback that I didn't know for so long, but not very surprised at the news itself. One of his more recent returns to blogging was from a hiatus due to a cardiac arrest. Howard was not immortal even if he was the most godlike (not to say Godlike, and no doubt Howard could speak to the difference better than anyone) person I have ever personally experienced. Here's something I wrote sitting in a class of Howard's in I guess 2000 ( or so... )
