I am still wondering if this is a dream or a dream within a dream.Without much ado, I have just listened to for more than an hour and spoke a word to Donald Ervine Knuth himself, albeit over the telephone on the wrong side of the Atlantic. It was the Don’s Lecture at Sun’s Menlo Park campus on Valentine’s Day and I sneaked in with a friend.
