If you were ten in 1954 you must have been 17 and 18 when you
attended the two year Feynman lecture series for freshmen and
sophomores at CIT?
Lucky guess! I had skipped a grade and a half back in elementary
school (they wanted me to skip more, but my father declined it,
though it would not be socially beneficial), so I graduated high
school in 1961, just having turned 17. So I was 17 the first year and
18 the next, just as you wrote. I'm impressed, somebody is paying attention.
