Donald Knuth @ Greenwich

Donald was speaking about the difference between the history of Computer Science and the history of Mathematics.

He didn't hear me offering him the pen, however everybody else seemed to appreciate it.

My apologies for the auto focus mechanism of my camera.

More details soon.

Knuth himself has seen this video and he wants the rest of it!

@Borbuster Sadly, I don't think there is any "rest of it" I gave my email to the cameraman at the time hoping for a copy of it too. He put it in his iPhone, which was a mistake in the first place I guess :-)

At his recent lecture in London, Knuth said he would love to know if you have the rest of this lecture because he can't remember what he said in it! Do post it if you have it, or send it to him

@robopanther Sadly, I do not, however I can send him originals of what I do have if he would so like.

Actually his clothes give him:

+2 Research

+5 Discovery

150% chance block stupid questions.
