If my eyes rolled back any further in my head I could look into the past.
But you've proven your own point: you know him because he's known but because you're actually familiar with his work.
So again: textbook celebrity worship masquerading as intellectualism.
- inglor_cz 2y ago"you know him because he's known but because you're actually familiar with his work" I cannot parse your statement, either there are some missing words, or some problem with your English. Anyway, from my previous comment, you couldn't have any idea about how I got to know Feynman and his work. I haven't mentioned it at all. FYI, I got acquainted with his work in 1996 when I enrolled into the university. I was studying maths, my dormitory roommate was studying theoretical physics, and he had several Feynman's books that were very interesting to me, though I must admit that sometimes the underlying apparatus was really complicated for an 18 y.o. greenhorn. But the principles were clear enough.
