Jacob Bear!
Starting this coming tuesday, I will have the opportunity to experience a giant in the field of hydrology: Jacob Bear. For those of you who don’t know who he is – for me he is for hydrogeology what Werner von Siemens was for electrodynamics. Seriously.
He will be lecturing a short course and I will be listening and learning! I just read his autobiographical note in groundwater and I am just amazed. And I just pulled my version of his book out of the shelf… it is so beautiful!

What kind of question would you ask Jacob Bear? I’ll keep you posted how it goes!
