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



#ATTENDANCE Q. #1 for LECTURE 8
#WHERE WAS THE FOUNDER AND PRESIDENT OF OEIS BORN? WHAT IS THE DOB?

#ANSWER to Q. #1:	Neil Sloane is the founder & president of OEIS.  He was born October 10, 1939 (Wikipedia)




#ATTENDANCE Q. #2 for LECTURE 8
#Who is the most famous colleague of Tutte in WWII?

#ANSWER to Q. #2:	I couldn't exactly find the name of any particular colleague that stood out, but I know that
#			he worked at Bletchley Park with the codebreakers, whom Alan Turning was prominent upon.
#			John Tiltman was another name that came up more often than others, and he was also at
#			Bletchley Park.




#ATTENDANCE Q. #3 for LECTURE 8
#Why is MC Marco Schutzenberger considered by many people a crackpot?

#ANSWER to Q. #3:	I think it is because some of his work was considered to associate with 'bogus' science, perhaps
#			some ideas connecting his biological studies (His mathematical studies are more famous and
#			I don't believe those are where people get the "crackpot" name from).





#ATTENDANCE Q. #4 for LECTURE 8
#Why was Dr. Z disappointed at Timothy Gowers?

#ANSWER to Q. #4:	I'm not entirely sure, but perhaps it is because of his blogging and initiatives in mathematical
#			publishing, and his influence reaching out and perhaps making the field a feat of popularity
#			rather than honest research?
