<VV> Re: Carl Sagan's Corvair

[BEllison@bbafiberweb.com]

This website, http://williampoundstone.net/Sagan.html shows the TOC of a
book by William Poundstone showing that Carl lived in Cambridge between 63
and 68.  Since everything on the internet is true, how can you argue?  I
vote typo.  He probably introduced himself as "Dr. Carl Sagen" and I know of
no DMV worker that would ask "Is that PHD or MD?"  LOL

Still, could have been more than one.  Maybe the chapter titled "Wheel of
Fortune" has something on the car?
