I'll never forget the fall colors on the Berkshires.
At Harvard I majored in chemistry with a strong inclination toward math.
I can't think of any relatives that ever went into science.
Later in the fifties I got involved in kinetic studies using my long forgotten math background.
In those days I was terrible at athletics and never made a team, but quite easily led my class in academics.
I was one who liked to work with my hands as well as my brain.
