Claude Shannon

[Neil Todd <todd@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

It may have come to the attention of some list readers that Claude Shannon
has recently died. Perhaps some of our colleagues from MIT/Bell Labs may
like to say a few words in the way of an obituary? The "Mathematical Theory
of Communication" has surely had considerable influence in the broad area
of auditory science, and the concept of information entropy will surely
continue to be an important theoretical and practical tool in future
developments.
