I remember being a friend of Ira's when we were in primary school and junior high, I always thought he was a smart kid, but I had no idea that he was so serious about the topic that he wrote even ONE book about it! That's great. After high school, so many of us in the pre-email era lost touch with virtually everybody else in our class, and life took all of us in different directions, and I'm not sure I even saw him again, but nevertheless, I was sorry to learn of his passing, almost 5 years after the event.
