what the potential can be for a meaningful, stimulating and
thought-provoking life. He has always encouraged the love of learning,
and the exploring of creativity in an environment of friendliness,
flair, good taste, wit, humor, kindness and generosity.

The pursuit of truth in the company of friends.
