So I'm curious... :o Who is this celebrity mathematician I have seen referred to as DD?
 
Mathematics news on Phys.org
My dream man, always to be just a dream.

DD is probably the famous quantum physicist David Deutsch.
 
What! David Deutsch? He's— famous! I saw him talk and I saw his book! I thought Evo's "dream man" was just "some quantum physicist"

(Haha, how pathetic "I saw him once!")

Don't rub it in.

Uh! ok? You didn't see him once did you?
 
Evo said:
Not in person.

You did see him in a parallel universe.
 
Hmmm... am I going to have to launch a lawsuit? Around here, DD is me... Danny Danger. Given that I have no math ability, though, I suppose that there's no possibility of us being mistaken for each other.

You can't spell Danger without Danny... Oh wait, that's not right...
