Author
He is perhaps the earliest pioneer in the small world phenomenon, and an enthusiastic world brainist, as dubbed by  Eugene Garfield in memoriam (1989), who himself is another in effect as he founded the  Science Citation Index only to prefer the  World Brain (1938) in global perspective to the  Memex (1939, 1945) in personal perspective of information management.

It is an irony and pity that the relevant academics neglect to acknowledge their intellectual debts and pay due homage to Kochen, the pioneer of the "small world" above all. They may fatally endanger the fair free market as well as academic morality. Take seriously why and how serious it is. Such unfairness or injustice may give way to the recent emergence of Pirate Party,  WikiLeaks, and  twitter in a year, 2006!
