Note:These pages make extensive use of the latest XHTML and CSS Standards. They ought to look great in any standards-compliant modern browser. Unfortunately, they will probably look horrible in older browsers, like Netscape 4.x and IE 4.x. Moreover, many posts use MathML, which is, currently only supported in Mozilla. My best suggestion (and you will thank me when surfing an ever-increasing number of sites on the web which have been crafted to use the new standards) is to upgrade to the latest version of your browser. If that's not possible, consider moving to the Standards-compliant and open-source Mozilla browser.

Jack Morava

Posted by John Baez

Today I heard from David Benson that Jack Morava died yesterday. This comes as such a huge shock that I can’t help but hope Benson was somehow misinformed. Morava has been posting comments to the n-Café and sending emails to me even very recently.

This is all I know, now.

Oh, that’s a pity! For a long time he’d comment here under the name ‘jackjohnson’ and always had highly interesting ideas to impart.
