I had never met Marvin Minsky, and I doubt he knew anything about me. Around 1994 I posted on some math forum that I was unable to find a copy of Kleene's "Metamathematics" book, which I wanted to buy. Minsky offered and sent me a copy he had, without charge. Nice of him! —Dan

Nice quotes from Alan Kay and Danny Hillis.
