    A wonderful lecture by a brilliant man. He speaks in terms we all can understand. The complexities of their achievements would boggle our minds even today.

    One has to see this many many times. Great memory of the great men and time told by a great man. It is a book in itself worth to keep it on the shelf. The teenage listeners behind Teller appreciate this day with him when they will be in their fortieth. That is the nature of us. All round maturity and nostalgia are two sides of the same coin.

    Huge mistake seating those people behind this man to distract from his presentation. To have the opportunity to even be in the same room with a historic legend and to be so rude and short sighted is unfortunate to say the least. This man was talking about personally meeting and talking to EINSTEIN and that bunch of brats acted like they hear this everyday! Disgusting! And these are today’s leaders!

    What an honor to hear from a member of the team that changed the world. Most aggravating were the kids in the back ground that do not get it and will some day regret they did not stay and take it all in.

    Teller was obsessed his "supers" from the rip. In fact Oppenheimer tried to have him help with the implosion calculations and Teller half assed them got them wrong and afterward was allowed to focus on "supers".

    He was in Copenhagen in 1933, not 1943. The latter would have been impossible, since Denmark was occupied by the Nazis.

    Nice chat and a great man. Thank you for sharing. I wonder if he knew about doped aerogel to suppress the radiation and let the neutron density go up and not get destroyed by all that radiation before they hit the core. That and lithium neutron release like castle bravo had. Glad to see a video of him. Thank you again for sharing.

    Well, if you consider only his lecture, sure, it's outrageous, but remember Teller was a madman that slept and woke thinking about making bigger and bigger explosions, so maybe some left because they couldn't bear his principles? Probably.
