I mean, he lived to 97. Given what he's known for, it made me chuckle. Anyway, I thought it was Crick who was into eugenics. If it was both of them, I'm afraid I shall have to amend my opinion of both of them from "disturbingly troubling" to "unredeemable so let's just get them out of the textbooks thanks" right away.

By all means they should remain in textbooks. We have a lot of unredeemable people in history that we should not ignore. If anything it's probably a healthy reminder that even "smart" people can have blinders on?
