Feynman is great.
He is so accurate.
Excellent! Thank you for posting it.
“Surely You’re Joking, Mr. Feynman!” Is a very entertaining book. Highly recommended.
And then there’s this memorable moment from the hearings on the Challenger disaster.

“Wonderful explanation of ethics in science.”
Yes. Feynman wasn’t just brilliant: he had a seemingly insatiable curiosity and a pile of common sense.
His experiments with ants, as a child in that book,), were better done than most of the science I read today.
One placethat has been corrupted to the core with bad science is the so-called “Global Warming” field. Michael Mann set the corruption bar decades ago, with his bad science, and that’s where the money then flowed. Communists in the US saw a perfect opportunity to scare everyone into allowing more control, and infinite taxes. With data that’s been rigged from the get go.
There’s a small group) and growing, thankfully) of real scientists disproving it all. They largely hang out at WattsUpWithThat.com. Which was started by a guy (Anthony Watts) who helped debunk Mann early on.
They’ve also debunked the “Polar Bears are dying!” lies, and same with reefs.
Good place to read and learn.
