Lewis M. Terman Professor[edit]

I've put a bit in the Lewis M. Terman article that there is an endowed professorship at Stanford with this name that Prof. Bracewell had held. I don't have much more on it though. --Erp (talk) 01:45, 24 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Other interests[edit]

The article text has

"his proof that even that thin edge had 3 balance points."

...or maybe the ground wasn't perfectly flat
...or maybe the "thin edge" was actually a thick (e.g. bevelled) edge
