Just Feynman.A lot of people ask how someone like Richard Feynman Noun 1. Richard Feynman - United States physicist who contributed to the theory of the interaction of photons and electrons (1918-1988) Feynman, Richard Phillips Feynman , who played the bongo bongo (bŏng`gō), spiral-horned antelope, Boocercus eurycerus, found in jungles and thick bamboo forests of equatorial Africa. Shy, elusive animals, bongos never emerge into the open and are seldom seen; they browse singly or in small drums, loved practical jokes, and was an amateur safecracker and a bon vivant, could also win a Nobel Prize in Physics The Nobel Prize in Physics (Swedish: Nobelpriset i fysik) is awarded once a year by the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences.

adj. Variant of extroverted. Adj. 1. extraverted - being concerned with the social and physical environment extravert, extravertive, extrovert, extrovertive, extroverted (Jung's spelling), intuitive type. These are people who can make leaps of understanding that seem to have no logical connection. These types seem rather off-the-wall in their personal, as well as their professional, lives. ROBERT G. CHESTER, TUMWATER, WASH. The sidebar titled "Van Go" in the article on Richard Feynman states: "On May 11, 1998, Feynman diagrams were briefly in the public eye when a post office in Lake Worth, Fla., used one of them as its stamp cancellation to honor Richard Feynman, who had died in February of that year...." Richard Feynman died in 1988, not 1998. JON L. NAUERT, MOUNT VERNON, WASH. A late change in the article indeed introduced the error. Feynman died 10 years before the stamp cancellations.--EDITORS |
