      Q fr @SamGKlein: Wondering if engineers felt pressured to give certain answers re the Challenger accident? Q: We all knew the cause b4 we got to DC. I left w/in a day or 2. The rest of committee wanted to wine & dine at 5* hotel at gov't's expense @HISTORY @NASA @washingtonposthttps://twitter.com/SamGKlein/status/1202429757742288896 …

      None of the commission members in particular, just wondering if the feedback you analyzed from the engineers was true or if they felt pressure to answer a particular way to satisfy the prevailing thesis about the systemic issues

      What did you think of Feynman's dissent and media appearances? Appreciate your candor, thank you

      I didn't. He tried to say he was the one who discovered the answers but that statement was incorrect.

      Dr. Feynman's own account of these matters deserves consideration. Well documented in the last chapters of "What Do You Care What Other People Think." 1/2

      Among other things, he complains about having to actually pay out of pocket for his fancy hotel, suggesting that one of your critiques is off basis. 2/2

      He stayed a lot longer than anyone apparently so at a certain point, he may have. But not for the first week or more.

          Chuck's empty seat and name plate spoke volumes more than any panel member. It took me a long time to figure this out.. It was curious that Chuck was not there.. But his absence spoke volumes.. it hollered it. It is a testament. It puts everything into perspective esp R Feynman
