Hmmm, that doesn't sound familiar at all. Which page of the book
describes that?
I once read two small books, collections of anecdotes about Feynman. The
titles, as I recall, were "Surely you jest, Mr. Feynman" and "What do you
care what other people think". They were paperbacks. The story about the
safes was in one of them, I don't recall which. The title of the first was
the remark by the wife of the head of the graduate school at Princeton,
pouring tea at a reception, when Feymnan decided he wanted both lemon and
surgar in his tea.
