John Derbyshire

I suppose reviewing a book signing is about as far down the Journalism/Literature ladder as you can go [No, jk, blogging is!] but I have to say that I had a great time last night at the Boulder Bookstore to meet John Derbyshire (of National Review Fame) and get an autographed copy of his book, "Prime Obsession."

I was a Math major for the first leg of my long and non-contiguous college career. Like Derb, I love it and like Derb, I have to question whether I would have made it as all in that field (as opposed to millions I made as a musician). He spoke of Math and mathematicians, the publishing business, and about the Riemann Hypothesis. A good night out and I am looking forward to the book.

Here's the schedule of future events.
