In another example of his wisdom and forward-thinking, I can remember @EdwardOThorp regularly utilizing anti-bacterial hand sanitizers like Purell throughout the day.....almost 15 years ago. #COVID2019 #purell #wisdom #science

Claude Shannon, with his treasury of intriguing information and ingenious ideas, was a joy to work with. We got along so well because, from an early age, science was play for both of us.

Claude Shannon should have won a Nobel Prize - and his should be a household name. For one, computers and cell phones would not be possible without his Information Theory. Dr. Shannon and @EdwardOThorp used Newtonian physics to beat the game of Roulette...how cool is that?!
