A little morbid, but is Dr. Georg von Tiesenhausen still alive?

Oh I did, lots of references to him, technical papers etc. etc.

given that he had always been a feature at ASA I thought someone on this fourm would know. Current counselors I'm looking at you..

Yup he is still kicking. Dr. Von T was speaking twice a week to trainees the whole time I was there. Supposidly it was going to be his last season, and he was finally going to retire... but I heard he'd changed his mind right before I left in August.

I don't think he'll ever retire. He has far too much passion for that...

When I was there last month (September) he gave us the two hour lecture as usual and afterwards i was speaking to my counselor about him (our whole group love him) she was saying it was his last year and he was going to stop giving lectures.
