Norman

It was with sadness that I read that Norman Borlaug has died. There appears to be no memorial or celebration of his having lived planned. There are more human beings alive today because of him than any other person that I know of. Lister, Salk, and Borlaug. It is a short list of individuals that humanity owes great debts to. We celebrate the lives of those that have brought us war, disease, and famine. Generals and leaders that plunged us into strife and turmoil. There should be a celebration of the lives of the righteous outside of Israel. If I just say Norman, who do you think of?
