Learn even more of Feynman - A Life with Integrity

Feynman challenges the Challenger Commission Inquiry (pun intended) with in-your-face, simple demonstration of thermal expansion / contraction for the O-ring seals. Was not he the only one of this select group not kowtowing and susceptible to employment retribution [NASA, Ride, et al.]? Imagine if everyone Actually Said It As It Is? Feynman, in a bar, says he'll buy a woman drinks (after first being asked to by her) only if she first Agrees to bedding w / him afterwards. Conditions pointblank. Cold. No silly games. Too intelligent and life's too short. Feynman had great disdain for affectation: a Pope's gown, military bars and stars, long titles. I do not recall the book giving you all of this, but you do get a very refreshing insight into a real person - Dr. Richard P. of Rockaway. And you know that question: Of all the people ... Whom would you like to have a dinner with? Sorry, D-cups.
