This Sunday the World will run a profile of Martin Gardner, the Tulsa native who is perhaps best known for his "Mathematical Games" column that ran for 25 years in Scientific American magazine, and his work as a founder of the Committee for Skeptical Inquiry, which is devoted to debunking crank science.
One indication of the esteem with which Mr. Gardner is held by the scientific and mathematics community is the biennial Gathering for Gardner, the most recent of which was held last week in Atlanta.
A Wall Street Journal story on the event is here:
