Fellow while he was alive and well." 
 
Matt, it was our job to nominate Bob Heilbroner for the honor. I once 
came very close to it and would like to acknowledge the encouragement of 
the then committee chairman. Unfortunately I must admit to not feeling 
up to the task among the HET specialists and luminaries of the Society.
