One of the rare privileges in the life of an academician is to interact with a truly germinal intellect. This opportunity comes only a few times in a professional life time. This reviewer was first privileged to meet Sir Macfanlane Burnet in 1957, when he was on his way to Nashville, Tennessee, to evocate his clonal theory of immunity for the first time.
Sir Mac, as he is known by friends all over the world, had been invited to a Ross conference on developmental immunology in Dallas, Texas.
