A Soliloquy for Art and Dick
Robert J. Dooling
Abstract Art Popper and Dick Fay are probably the most prolifi c scientists in the
history of auditory research. In fact, they should probably be listed among the most
prolifi c authors anywhere given their number of Springer Handbook of Auditory
Research volumes, alone, now reaching 51 volumes and still continuing! To give
them their proper due, I channeled another very prolifi c author from years ago and
produced a soliloquy to honor their contributions to us and our fi eld of auditory
science.
Keywords Dynamic duo • Goldfi sh • Generalist • Specialist
The following poem was presented by Robert Dooling at the banquet following the symposium to
honor Drs. Arthur N. Popper and Richard R. Fay :
