I have a copy of Tuva or Bust---I haven't been following this too

much--waiting for the read-thru and because I haven't read to page 
542--but yes Tuva or Bust is about Feynman, yes he never got there, yes 
Feynman was interested because of stamps he collected as a kid...you 
will soon have a copy and realizes that it is a novelty sort of book--I 
love my copy because it is a document about an obsession, a quest, 
creative thinkers, and human relationships (and because my seven year 
old daughter bought it for me...)  Tuva is cool---go see the women 
singers when they are on tour in the US...http://www.tyvakyzy.com/

But as to "everything points to Feynman"--maybe like the cancellation on 
the stamp that Monroe(?) 
posted--http://www.fotuva.org/misc/cancel_1.html....
