Patrick Suppes was born OTD in 1922.
One of the great 20th century philosophers of science, Pat was an early critic of the semantic conception of theories, believing that theories are best conceived as sets of models.
He was also accomplished in both empirical science and business.

William James was born OTD in 1842.
As important as “pragmatism” to understanding James is “meliorism,” the idea that improving the world is possible, but not assured. We have to fight for it.

OTD in 1836, HMS Beagle docked at Falmouth, after a 5 year voyage.
Charles Darwin wrote in his diary, “To my surprise and shame, I confess the first sight of the shores of England inspired me with no warmer feelings, than if it had been a miserable Portuguese settlement.”
