Full Summary: This event is part of a one day global celebration of the life of Martin Gardner. See www.g4g-com.org for information on Atlanta's Celebration of Mind party.

Martin Gardner (1914-2010) "brought more mathematics to more millions than anyone else," according to Elwyn R. Berlekamp, John H. Conway & Richard K. Guy. Who was this man, how was he so influential, and will his legacy matter in the 22nd century? We'll try to answer these questions.
