![His Stanford colleague Frank W. Weymouth wrote about him:
Injustice or oppression in the next street ... or any spot inhabited by men was a personal affront to Thomas Addis and his name, from its early alphabetical place, was conspicuous on lists of sponsors of scores of organizations fighting for democracy and against fascism. He worked on more committees than could reasonably have been expected of so busy a man. ... Tom Addis was happy to have a hand in bringing to the organization of society some of the logic of science and to further that understanding and to promote that democracy which are the only enduring foundations of human dignity.[5]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:33h4q6nw674jdcwfxaq2m2nl/bafkreidjwcfxnwi7xc4iksu3t5rsasfpy3bv445m545lqsknpfhhgjhvl4@jpeg)

#Quiz from the archives:
