    Well, you probably missed it. John Bardeen died in 1991, but I couldn’t find the event listed on any of the calendars on the Internet. I suppose that is because he was born clear back in 1908. Pretty hopelessly old-fashioned. Except that John Bardeen invented the transistor and proposed the theory of superconductivity. No big deal.
