For those who may not know, Dr. Mayer (aka Mayer-Kress), passed away on January 25 after a long battle with cancer. The complexity community loses a great contributor and pioneer in the advancement of the field. For my part, he was one of the few established scientists who took seriously my ideas regarding the self-organized complex dynamics of bicycle pelotons and offered me much mentoring and encouragement. For that I owe him a great debt of gratitude and will miss him immensely. More about him in the following links:
