Thomas Kuhn, author of "The Structure of Scientific Revolutions" and the coiner of "paradigm shift," died on 6/17/96. His passing was noted only in the NYT and The Boston Globe. Like Karl Popper, "Dr. Kuhn changed forever the way we think about the nature and production of organized knowledge. What more, one wonders, do you have to do to get an obituary in the Los Angeles Times?" [John Naughton, Observer, 6/96. Terry Labach, QOTD, 11/27/96.]
