I agree that it was an excellent choice :-) The response, in fairness, was not a veto so much as a polite request to consider something else - recognizing that it would require additional discussion for which there will not be time in order to avoid (or at least provide adequate cover from) metaphorical lightning bolts being shot from a certain type of parent. I have a couple of books of/on Feynman that I was going to look through - I like that idea, too. Not familiar with Planiverse - thanks for the suggestion.

Ernest Shackleton's wrote this to his 9 year old daughter before he set out to rescue the stranded crew of the Endurance. http://www.archive.org/stream/lifeofsirernests00milluoft#page/232 http://www.archive.org/stream/lifeofsirernests00milluoft#pag...
- jmorr 17y agoNever seen that before - thanks! I am enthralled by Shackleton's story, though.
