I read 'Surely you're joking Mr. Feynmann' ( I may have garbled the title) quite a few years ago and was enthralled by it. He was definitely a bit of a Renaissance man and knew how to live. I subsequently dipped into his educational books on physics - they made the subject matter a helluva lot more interesting than the usual college textbooks.

It is so far off topic that I propose just sending it to those who know of Feynman and share my admiration for the man. If anyone has any interest in the inner thoughts of one of the most brilliant physicists, let me know and I will respond directly.
I'll wait a few days for responses and/or complaints.
