Ross ------------------------------------------------------------------------ An interesting obituary of Saunders Mac Lane appears at arXiv:math.HO/ 0507203. http://xxx.sf.nchc.gov.tw/pdf/math.HO/0507203. Michael Batanin pointed me to it. Professor Kutateladze taught Michael analysis in Novosibirsk. Apparently this University had the enlightened system that experts on analysis should actually teach it! Western systems seem to have drifted away from that policy. It is also enlightened that an analyst should not be biased against using category theory should that be needed.
