h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Two years ago I saw a docu at TV about the life and work of Richard Feynman.
He is the inventor of the quantum mechanic theory.

But it was the mix that made him loved around the globe.
He was very friendly, unconventional (visited pin-up club to make drawings), got a Nobel prize but left an eliteclub in the USA after one year. They did not say anything to the press. Too ashamed.

I will write here one day about him.

Today I found two books from him, translated.
But now I decide I'll buy one of these.
Sometimes it's really hilarious, how he can open a safe with all the atom documents in half an hour, just by the way of his thinking.

Yes, I love him.
I really do.
Very sincere and inspiring person.

This kind of questioning;

Quote; "Richard Feynman, in a fairly famous lecture some time in the early 1960s, asked the question; 'How small can a machine be and still be a functioning machine?' People didn’t really seriously start to investigate that question until the 1970s and ‘80s".

Well, yesterday I had at midnight a long conversation with a small company that sells books and video's about his life, including popular explanation by himself about quantumetc.

It appeared that the man on the phone had known him for some years (before Richard died in 1989. "Of course, you néver meet someone who is already dead ).

It felt asif I, myself, walked around in the BBC video I had seen.
Nice experience.
