    Doctor Joan

    September 24, 2020 /

    Dr. Joan Feynman died in July 2020. Her brother, Richard, was of course much, much more famous, with a Nobel Prize and a wealth of stories to his credit.

    Take Force

    September 23, 2020 /

    May 4 is celebrated as Star Wars Day ("May the Fourth Be With You") and as Dave Brubeck Day (5/4, as in the time signature of his quartet's legendary "Take Five," composed by saxophonist Paul Desmond). I thought: Why not both?
