		In 1915 Richard enrolled at JHU to study physics, but his studies were cut short when he was drafted for WW I.
		Richard Cox's most important work was Cox's Theorem.

	Burleith, 1861
		As a young man Cox had contemplated a naval career; leading citizens of the District wrote on his behalf to the president, asking that he be appointed midshipman, but nothing came of it.
		Richard Cox was also a colonel of the District of Columbia militia, and on March 4, 1861 his regiment was part of the president’s escort as Abraham Lincoln rode to his inauguration in an open carriage.
		Cox did not report, and shortly thereafter the Star carried the announcement: “Department News: Appointed — Lorenzo Thomas, Jr., Va. 2nd class clerk, in place of Richard S. Cox, resigned.” In Richmond Cox received a commission as paymaster, with the rank of major in the Confederate Army: he had “gone South”.

	Richard Smith Cox
		Richard Smith Cox lived at Burleith, which stood about where the Washington International School is today, near 36th Street and Reservoir Road.
		Richard’s brother Thomas Campbell Cox, an official in the State Department, and loyal to the Union, looked out for his absent brother’s interests.
		In fact, the Cox family took up residence at Stoke, in Aldie, Virginia, which Cox bought from his wife’s brother, with money borrowed from the husband of his half-sister Sallie Cox Smith; Burleith was his collateral.

	Algebra of Probable Inference by The Johns Hopkins University Press
		Cox does so through a functional derivation of probability theory as the unique extension of Boolean Algebra thereby establishing, for the first time, the legitimacy of probability theory as formalized by Laplace in the 18th century.
		Perhaps the most significant consequence of Cox's work is that probability represents a subjective degree of plausible belief relative to a particular system but is a theory that applies universally and objectively across any system making inferences based on an incomplete state of knowledge.
		Cox goes well beyond this amazing conceptual advancement, however, and begins to formulate a theory of logical questions through his consideration of systems of assertions -- a theory that he more fully developed some years later.

		The contributions of Richard Cox to logic and inductive reasoning may eventually be seen to be the most significant since Aristotle.
		Cox is their antipode, writing not only clearly, but supremely efficiently, beautifully, perhaps sometimes poetically, about functional differential equations and about delicate philosophical questions. Cox also deals with the relationship between entropy and distributive lattices.

	Reference.com/Encyclopedia/Cox's theorem
		Cox's theorem, named after the physicist Richard Threlkeld Cox, is a derivation of the laws of probability theory from a certain set of postulates.
		As the laws of probability derived by Cox's theorem are applicable to any propositions, logical probability is a variety of Bayesian probability.
		Cox's theorem implies that any plausibility model that meets the postulates is equivalent to the subjective probability model, i.e., can be converted to the probability model by rescaling.

	Burleith: History
		Cox, like his father-in-law, also served as mayor of Georgetown, from 1823 to 1845 (a longer term than any other person), succeeding Mayor Henry Foxhall, for whom the neighboring community of Foxhall Village was named.
		In order for Cox to accept the nomination for mayor, the city limits of Georgetown were expanded to include his estate.
		Richard Cox's sympathies were apparently with the South, because the home was confiscated by the government during the Civil War and was used by the Home for Destitute Colored Women and Children.

	MediaWatch -- 11/01/1990 -- Janet Cooke Award: CBS: Number Juggling
		For some perspective and context on the public's perception of a raw deal in the making, correspondent Richard Threlkeld is here tonight with the first of looks we'll be taking at the tax tangle and who pays.
		Threlkeld: "Dan, taxpayers always get mad when taxes go up, but what really gets taxpayers mad is when they suspect they've been paying more than their fair share.
		Threlkeld also played with the numbers by insisting the top five percent's income went up "largely because of tax changes in the '80s," but he used the figure 45 percent, which according to page 28 of the CBO report, is the increase in pre-tax income, not after-tax income.

	CJR - Foreign Affairs, Family Affairs, by Robin Goldwyn Blumenthal
		Richard Threlkeld, the CBS correspondent in Moscow, remembers a time when there was an unfortunate attitude among editors about foreign correspondents that "the more you whored around and the drunker you got, the harder you were working, and that therefore you were married" to your news organization.
		Threlkeld, 60, a journalist for thirty-five years, is married to his competition from CNN, Betsy Aaron, 59.
		As CBS's Threlkeld points out, "if you have a marriage that already has trouble, the strains of living overseas are only going to make it worse." But most couples say they wouldn't trade the experience for the world.

	Bayesian probability - Wikinfo
		The proponents of this view include Sir Harold Jeffreys, Richard Threlkeld Cox, and Edwin Jaynes.
		They created the idea of defining rational belief as an abstraction of betting behavior subject to the constraint that one doesn't want to be inconsistent in his behavior.
		Some schools of thought emphasise Cox's theorem and Jaynes' principle of maximum entropy as cornerstones of the theory, while others may claim that Bayesian methods are more general and give better results in practice than frequency probability.

	The Cox Conundrum
		Cox figured out earlier than anyone in the industry that battling churn was job one; that satisfied customers who were given a bundle of services were not just more profitable, said Sanford C. Bernstein analyst Craig Moffett, but a lot stickier.
		And second, now that Cox is private, there are no publicly traded shares of stock to offer executives as an incentive to stay on.
		When last it was public, Cox overcame that problem by establishing an internal stock market and issuing shares that could be redeemed by top executives at a strike price set annually.
