Roy Walford Dies
Roy was a pretty renowned professor at UCLA, an author, a pioneer in calorie restriction research, ran The Biosphere and lived in there for a couple years, was part of the Tim Leary crowd, and was an old friend of mine. He died on Tuesday, at 80, from complications from ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease). As of yet, no obit in the LA Times (hello?), but here's a link to his site.
