Funny
Itaipu was in the news recently for failing and cutting off electricity to a large part of SA. Funny how you edited that just a few weeks ago and I had never even heard of it.  DRosenbach  ( Talk 21:45, 15 November 2009 (UTC)


 * that's funny I didn't realize-I only heard of itaipu because I did a report on Paraguay. Idaho | 51 21:12, 17 November 2009 (UTC)

Richard Feynman
Yes -- I read both Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman! and What Do You Care What Other People Think?. Your father made me a copy of a few pages of the latter text just a week ago because it pertains to a shiur I'm giving this Friday night by my Rebbe's shul in Brooklyn. In fact, after reading the books, I went to the article to see what I could add that was missing and I noticed there was no mention of the two $1000 prizes he offered for advances in nanotechnology -- so I added it, and it's now found in the article as footnote 26. I also added the photo of the Feynman section in the Caltech bookstore, currently located in the article under the "Caltech years" section.  DRosenbach  ( Talk 00:47, 13 January 2010 (UTC)
