[ExI] Freeman Dyson is dead

[Re Rose]

Me too!! (re: cryonics)

I had the honor of discussing my research with Freeman Dyson when I was a
postdoc working on the origins of prebiotic life, back in the late 90s. We
discussed his book, "Origins of Life", a small gem. It was exciting to hear
him talk about his ideas on the origins of life, and his enthsuasm and
humor were infectious. I met with him only a few times, but his ideas
permeated my thoughts on my project. He will be missed.
