Dear group, I have often wondered who may have lived

in the BORI guest house over the years. From the BORI

Annals I know that a young Daniel Ingalls lived there

during the fifties, and from the man himself I know

that Fred Smith lived there for a couple of extended

periods years ago, but I suspect that a full list

would be quite illustrious. Can anyone add any names

and anecdotes?

David Pingree was there 1958-59 (see K. Plofker's obituary in *Historia

Mathematica* 34, pp. 3-6). Ingalls was, of course, Pingree's advisor.

There is some information about his stay there in the latest issue of

*Ganita Bharati*, which I unfortunately do not have at hand.

 

Sincerely,

Toke
