He's very Feynman-esque. He'll definitely have some fun stories if I can get him a blog or medium going.

It's not widely appreciated that Feynman didn't write either of his famous books ("Surely you're joking, Mr. Feynman" and "What do you care what people think?"). Both were compiled by his friend Ralph Leyton from audio recordings of Feynman sitting around telling stories.

- sizzzzlerz 8y agoPlease try. Even if you don't publish his stories, you'll be glad to have heard them later on. I was fortunate to have lived through that era and watched all the landings. Now, I try and find and read anything by those who were actually there: astronauts, flight directors, flight controllers, and government or contractor personnel. It is a fascinating and important era and it is worth documenting.
