I read Gardner - he was awesome!

My dad had a Scientific American subscription for years and I used to pick them up from where they'd been left lying around and read bits. Usually, Gardner's section was the best bit.

The column I remember best was one about evolving software algorithms. Many years later, researching in the field myself, I couldn't help thinking that his writing on the subject had been a lot better than many of the research papers.
