Re: Game #198: Generation Gap
Yes, all the definites are right, though some names will have to be put into a different form for correct use in the Tangredi.
Of the answers with a question mark, 9 are right and 3 are wrong.
Of the answers with alternates, two contain the correct answer and one does not.

7. I was looking for LUIS ALVAREZ, who also won the Nobel Prize for his work connected with the bubble chamber.
31. I was looking for JONATHAN WAXMAN.

Everything else is right, but some of the names will have to be in a somewhat different form for the Tangredi solution.
