James Ziegler

I am sorry to learn of the passing of Dr Zeigler. As a fellow graduate student at Yale he was a great friend and colleague.

I am over a year late and for that I am very sorry. For some reason I thought of Jim today - for two summers in the early 1990s I worked for Jim in his lab at Yorktown/IBM as a college student.
