My Life and Career (So Far) in Combustion Chemistry

Miller, James A.

This is a pretty pretentious title, but I promised that I would write something autobiographical in this space, and I will do that. However, first I want to thank everyone who contributed to the Festschrift. When Stephen Klippenstein told me that he and Craig Taatjes had gotten approval for it (against my advice), I envisioned a situation where the issue had only two papers, both co-authored by Stephen. Luckily that turned out not to be the case. At the time of this writing there are forty-three manuscripts at various stages of review. I am extremely grateful to Craig and Stephen, to the editors of the journal, and to all the authors for the tribute. It is far and away the most flattering thing that anyone has ever done for me in my career.
