Dear Dr. Feynman:
This might seem to be a strange letter, but once you see what I'm trying to do, maybe it
will not sound so strange. Frist off, Ｉ have a 16-years-old son who is fairly bright.
No genius you understand, but a lot smarter than I am in math and such.
He's trying to grow up and figure out himself and his world a little. A bit overweight, a little
shy, without a lot of self-confidence. He's going to be a junior this coming fall, so college is not
for away. He'd love to get into some good school, but with his grades the way they are that
could be a problem. Whatever he wants to do is fine with me, as long as he does it to to the best of his ability.
Martin, that's his name, sees the basic stuff as too easy for him and hence it's beneath him to
hand in the routine day-to-day assignments. He'd rather be doing the neat, fun stuff that the
rest of the class never gets to do. The trouble is that grades come from doing the routine
stuff, not the exotic stuff, so his grades are down.
