Alice, Carroll, and Gardner!

I am a great fan of Lewis Carroll and his Alice books . The pleasure of reading Alice was n-tupled when I came across The annotated Alice by Martin Gardner and I became a Gardner fan almost instantaneously. Apparently, Gardner turned ninety on October 21, 2004. The May 2005 issue of the College Mathematics Journal carries the first part of an interview with Gardner; Don Albers of the Mathematical people and More mathematical people is the interviewer. The article also contains some wonderful photographs. If you are a Gardner fan (and, on second thoughts, even if your aren't one) you might want to take a look at the interview and the accompanying photographs.
