#THE NUMBER OF ATTENDANCE QUESTIONS WERE:

#PLEASE LIST ALL THE QUESTIONS FOLLOWED, AFTER EACH BY THE ANSWER

#1) Where (country) was the founder and president of OEIS born? What is the DOB?
#The founder of OEIS, Neil Sloane, was born in Wales on October 10, 1939.

#2) Who is the most famous colleague of Tutte in WWII?
#Tutte worked at Bletchley Park in WW2. The most famous person I know and immediately think of #from Bletchley Park is Alan Turing, a famous Computer Scientist.

#3) M.C. "Marko" Schutzenberger is considered by many people a crackpot even though he is a #respected mathematician/cs/linguist. Why?
# He believed thought that the evolution theory of Darwinism was impossible/wrong and tried to 
# point out flaws in the theory of evolution. 

#4) Why was Dr. Z disappointed at the great Sir W. Timothy Gowers?
#The closest thing that I found is:
#In 2018, he wrote a controversial blog post that could be sexist and incorrect. 
#The blog post talked about a removed paper submitted to the Mathematical Intelligencer 
#on the variability hypothesis, which some think is sexist and lacking in scientific 
#(biological) merit. The variability hypothesis implies more men have high (and low) 
#intelligence compared to women, who just clump up at the middle, due to sexual selection.
#Biologists are angry at this paper because it was written by mathematicians who know 
#little about actual evolutionary biology and human genetics.
