>In memory of the second anniversary of Sasha Chislenko's demise:

(May 8?)

>He was a true visionary, and an inspiration to us all.

Yes.

>I'm proud to be his countryman.
>I met him only briefly in person, but feel fortunate to have met him at all.
>May his memes spread, proliferate, and evolve forever.

Memes. I hope so too.

I did know him. For one thing, Sasha taught me more than anyone else
about memes. He had a most persuasive way of expanding people's minds.

I don't know where to put this the following text, but it was my
first meeting with Sasha in September 1992 on the extropians list.
I met him a year later in person. I'll put it here for now.
