I knew him. We used to have lunch together on campus and talk about black holes. They were just sci-fi then; no one actually detected one until years later. He was a fine professor, by the way, not just an entertainer. Of his songs, I liked "Poisoning Pigeons in the Park" and "The Masochism Tango" best.

Get the heck out! Are you a mathematician? How did you meet him? I have seen him a lot on TV and such but never met him. I think he is still alive.

When he went national and all that did he give up the math part, did he write papers? (Rather than just grading them🙂

To remember them, nope; but to know them, certainly.

I remember that one, got a giggle! I wonder how many people here knows what a Nash Rambler is?

You know, a funny thing happened at work. A bunch of people here are from India.

I have a project I am working on that needed an old time transistor radio.

So I found one at a yard sale, working yet!

I turned it on and it was playing a local talk show.

I said to this woman co-worker, look at this.

She stared at it, looked it up and down and said with amazement, 'What is it"?

Too young to recognize what it was🙂
