You really get a sense of his charisma and New York charm.
But I suspect that based upon some of his other statements he should've chosen his words more carefully.
"The atoms like eachother to diffeerent degrees."
Hydrogen and carbon really like eachother.
"And you get a terrible catastrophe. Which is one after another you get all these things moving faster and faster and snapping in. And the whole thing's changing. That catastrophe is a fire! It's just a way of lookin' at it."
My source essentially quotes himself:

Sounds like Velikovsky.
Feynman: Bigger Is Electricty.
ReplyDeleteHere he comes off as poor at math and lacking in memory. Much more mortal in this one.
Feynman dying of a brain tumor doesn't change the fact that I can visualize the math more clearly when he explains electrical forces though.
ReplyDeleteWhat math are you talking about? Coulomb's Law?
