I'm a bit amazed that you used the present tense since he's been
dead since 2003.

Please don't interpret this as unfriendly, but I don't
drop everything and go to a link without having a clue
as to why I might find it interesting.

And I'm not making fun of Prigogine. One of the sad things
in my life was missing out on a chance to do post-doctoral
work with Prigogine back in 1959.

It's just a signed letter from the man, dated 1955,
Univ. of Brussels. I have another from Jean Timmermans,
who supposedly influenced Prigogine at the Brussels
school of thermodynamics. Some people are into
autographs...
