Jun 7, 2010 at 14:06 comment added Jim Humphreys Probably I did notice that article at the time, though I don't recall the "Unabomber" label being attached yet. (By the way, one former colleague of mine got his Ph.D. at Michigan the same year 1967 as Kaczynski; naturally he has no recollection of the guy. They did work in quite different fields. I've actually known a few others in that same large UM Ph.D. class, but not TJK himself.)
Jun 7, 2010 at 2:06 comment added Igor Pak I think you are referring to the infamous article by a Unabomber: T.J. Kaczynski, Another proof of Wedderburn's theorem, Amer. Math. Monthly. 71 (1964), 652-653.
