		When I first met Dana in 1963, I was a normal, healthy technotwit—a nerdy 15- or 16-year-old high-school student in Amherst—and she was a roughly 22-year-old biophysics grad student earning her PhD with Professor Oleg Jardetzky at Harvard Med School.
		Dana stayed grounded all her life in these real things, showing us how to find in daily life the gift to be simple, to be free, to come down where we ought to be.
		Dana had these experiences all the time, and shared them ever more widely as she became argua-bly the world's best environmental writer.

		Donella H. Meadows, known as "Dana" to her friends, died on February 21 of this year at the age of 59.
		Unfortunately, Dana and her co-authors from 1972 have not yet been proven wrong, despite their own efforts to create awareness and motivate change, and despite decades of other people's efforts to deny, disprove, and discredit their work.
		For Dana, the idea of sustainability was fundamentally about embracing a vision of a better world, and a vision of ourselves as better people.
