When I was 19 I sent Chaitin a letter asking him to send me a paper. He responded by mailing me his complete works - more than a thousand pages. I probably think about that once a month. It was remarkably generous.

I was invited to a small-group dinner with him, more than 10 years later, and got to thank him for it.

That's so nice. Read the story at the beginning of https://arxiv.org/pdf/chao-dyn/9406002.pdf … about how Chaitin almost got to meet Gödel, if you haven't already. I'm glad you got to meet Chaitin!
