FEYNMAN'S DAY



For the people of 'Eureka', Oregon, it wasn't on April Fool's Day when they celebrated pranks and practical jokes. It was on Feynman's Day. Apprarently the world-renowned physicist Richard Feynman was a great lover of practical jokes.

Since Feynman was born on May 11, 1918, we could assume that the 'Eureka' episode "In Too Deep' - which occurred on Feynman's Day - then I think the "holiday" was taking place on May 11, Feynman's birthday. Most people would choose the date of birth rather than the day they died to celebrate someone Like with Abraham Lincoln. I know that's what Yoko would want for John.......

So "In Too Deep" had to take place on May 11 of this year. We can then use that as a marker to plot out the positions for the other episodes of the series on the Toobworld timeline.

The one we'd still have trouble with is last year's Christmas episode. I think we have to just chalk that up to being about one of the alternate dimensions.....

BCnU!
