So, I’ve been following Charlie Musslewhite on facebook, because he’s been active on Facebook and two years ago when I had heart ablation the tech asked me what music I liked, and I said Charlie Musselwhite thinking it was the start of a conversation. Instead, I think they plugged it into a streaming service and we listened to Musselwhite-ish for three hours.

Anyway, one of those “Who famous have you talked to” questions came around and his answer started with Elvis. I decided to respond, starting with Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar and ending with Allen Ginsberg. Charlie answered saying he had run into Ginsberg in Greenwich Village. Maybe that allows me to add Charlie Musselwhite?

I'd say it does.

Here was the list:

Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar
Walter Brattain
Paul Erdös
Paul Dirac
Clyde Tombaugh
W. Jason Morgan
Walter Alvarez
Franco Harris
Johnny Vander Meer
Allen Ginsberg

Add: Charlie Musselwhite

I also have stories to tell about conversations with Alan Simpson, Pat Schroeder, Jared Diamond, Will Shortz, Bobby Richardson, and (sorta) Donald Sutherland

The ones I can think of right now are:
James Cameron
Bill Paxton
Robert Patrick
Joaquin Phoenix
(all at the same event, Bill and James at the same time.)

I've talked with a lot of astronauts--they excite more than actors do. But the only truly famous one is Jack Schmitt.
