I didn't come to argue, though --

I just wanted to say Freeman Dyson is cool as fuck.
I didn't read that review in NYRB, whatever it was about,
but I loved "Starship and Canoe", Dyson spheres, nuclear-powered rockets...

I even admire the minimalist design on his home page,

Looks like it might be possible he was at Cornell when TRP was?
