Douglas MacDiarmid's 90th
Behind the scenes
Today is Douglas MacDiarmid's 90th birthday. What a milestone!
I last wrote about Douglas for Bunker Notes back in September 2011 after meeting him in Paris. We enjoyed a very pleasant evening, conversation flowing like (and with) wine. And I've had occasional, but always intense and interesting, email exchanges since. He certainly thinks of New Zealand, Christchurch and us and understands the staying power we need during this time of forced closure.
We, in turn remember him today and wish him well!
