Abstract
This essay is presented in grateful memory of David Norman Ralph Levey, born in 1950, who passed away in May 2020 of complications associated with cervical surgery. He was promoted to associate professor in 2011, but I, and most of his colleagues and friends, knew him as either “Dave” or “David”, and in order to honour the memory of our long-standing friendship and collegiality, I will allude to him by his first name in this essay. This is not to be taken as a sign of disrespect for the deceased. On the contrary, I mean it as a gesture of respect for his habit of treating everyone, from cleaners to councillors, as equals.
这篇文章是为了纪念David Norman Ralph Levey，他出生于1950年，于2020年5月因颈椎手术并发症去世。他在2011年被提升为副教授，但我和他的大多数同事和朋友都知道他是“Dave”或“David”，为了纪念我们长期的友谊和合作，我将在本文中间接提到他的名字。这并不是对死者的不尊重。相反，我的意思是对他对待每个人的习惯表示尊重，从清洁工到议员，都是平等的。
