Dear FIS Colleagues,

Thanks, Krassimir. It is very sad news indeed. Karl was a very dear 
acquaintance of mine.
He came to visit me in Zaragoza as early as in 1994. We had invited him 
to deliver a Seminar on his new approach to biology via his original 
number theory.
Afterwards we cooperated a couple of years within a small group (Jose 
Pastor & Morris Villarroel) in the development of his multidimensional 
partitions stuff--a fascinating topic which unfortunately we could not 
continue and has remained out from focus.  He presented further 
elaborations in successive FIS Conferences and mostly in our discussion 
list where we all have read and enjoyed his curious and eloquent prose.
Karl was a charming man, discrete, polite and perhaps rather elusive 
--except concerning his loved Sumerian / Akkadian counting systems and 
the way Nature computes her cyclicity.
Quite probably what Karl would have preferred is an obituary commenting 
on his work... Annette has suggested me that the people who has had a 
more direct connection with him prepare a short report on that.
It is a very good idea.

Dear Karl, a strong hug!
--Pedro
