FLEETING MOMENTS

Abstract

These three little essays were written with a degree of licentia poeticae, and I hope they do not offend those few, mentioned herein, who are still with us. The purpose for writing these quasi‐reminiscences was to offer a glimpse into the atmosphere when these great minds try to talk and relax. These light‐hearted forays contain a very incomplete list of those who worked in and significantly contributed to the realm of “informatics” and “astronautics”, the two pylons of science in the 20th Century. Because my life is teaching, I could not miss the opportunity to indulge in some didactic excursions.
