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....
