His name is Marshall Rosenbluth.
And I told him, I'm coming to a visit.
And are there any places?
I'm about to finish this program.
I became an officer and so forth.
Where should I aspire to go?
And he said, well, I used to be faculty at the Institute for...
advanced study at Princeton, where Einstein used to be faculty several decades earlier.
And so he recommended that I go there.
So I wrote a message to the administrator there and asked her to visit at the end of my trip to Washington.
And she said, well, you know, we just don't allow anyone to come here.
Send me your CV.
And I sent it and I had 11 publications.
And she said, okay, you know what?
You can come over.
So I went there and then she said, there isn't anyone interested in speaking to visitors like you here, except for one person that has plenty of time.
That's Freeman Dyson.
Freeman Dyson?
Yes.
Wow.
