The David Caron Rule of X

摘要

Thank you, Neil (Popovic), for the kind introduction. Thank you, Laurel (Fletcher), Karen (Chin) and so many others in the Berkeley community, for all the preparation. I add a special thank you to Susan (Spencer) for your courage. As I prepared my talk, Professor Stacie Strong wrote to me: "Sadness shared is sadness halved." I am not sure I agree, but I do know that celebration shared surely is celebration doubled. I am deeply honored and grateful to be invited to speak at this celebratory symposium for David.
