[seqfan] Re: Martin Gardner & humour

[Graeme McRae]

Not sure if this helps, but here goes...

The recent Car Talk podcast includes a phone call recorded several  
years with a listener who called into the show to object to an  
incorrect report at the time that Martin Gardner had died. The caller  
said on the air that he had called his dad who confirmed that Martin  
Gardner was still alive. What made your dad so sure of that? asked the  
radio host. Because my dad is Martin Gardner! the caller said.
