I'm jealous, Bob. I always read Martin Gardner in Scientific American, IIRC, the mid-sixties and seventies. I'd have loved to have lunch with him one day.

But I don't put "... overflowing with 'may' and 'might' and 'suggests' and 'perhaps' and 'could be taken,' etc." as science.

One of their founders and long-time contributors, the late Martin Gardner,
was a mathematical genius and a whiz at logic and reason. He wrote puzzles
for Scientific American. He retired to the town in North Carolina where I
grew up, and where I worked as a newspaperman for many years. I had lunch
with Martin on a number of occasions, at his house and in local
restaurants.
