Dear Tipsters,

I wish to add that when B. F. Skinner died, his other daughter, Dr. 
Julie Vargas, gave an emotional interview on the Canadian 
Broadcasting Corporation's programme "As it Happens", and wrote 
a very moving personal account of his last days in the Journal of 
Applied Behavior Analysis (1990, 23(4), 409-410. Every time I read 
a certain section of this piece to my introductory psychology class, it 
brings tears to my eyes.

Skinner was clearly loved by both of his daughters.

Sincerely,

Stuart
