Rolling Boil

We watched the first part of A Beautiful Mind yesterday. The second part is on tape for tonight. It started well with the scenes in Princeton flagging a good academic drama – a sort of mathematical companion piece to Sylvia maybe. I’m not sure about the Pentagon/Secret service stuff. It seems overdone though I am aware that the story has been dramatized to make a better film. The radium diode seems an unlikely piece of technology for the 50s though I may be wrong. I bet you would have to have someone to read it rather than scanning it for access. Six numbers – that’s just like my secure id.
