Feynman was not a medical doctor, I don't understand why he would be teased about not knowing the anatomy of the cat.

- pluma 11y agoReasonable question, but I'm pretty sure the person was just happy there was one thing they knew better than Feynman (who seemingly knows everything else).
- cafard 11y agoAs I recall, it was Feynman giving a presentation in a biology class he was taking, and the biology graduate students saying Yeah, Yeah we know that; Feynman then said that no wonder he could catch up to graduate level if they spent all that time memorizing cat anatomy. And I'm not sure that Feynman had quite the name outside the physics community at that point.
