I recall when Godel died, in January of 1978. I had to give a talk the next day at Georgia Tech, and began the session by announcing his death, and asking for a moment of silence.

The great ones speak with a clarity that is delightful.

I'm ashamed to say that I don't recall what I was doing the day Gödel died. I envy you your act of that day.

I was at a talk with a half-dozen prominent Hungarians when Erdos died.
