I took 8.07 in fall of '87 with Goldstone. That sounds just like him.
(Has he gotten a new shirt yet? :-)
My favorite Goldstone quote:
<Explaining some notational choice>: ``You don't want to do it this way,
because if I do it that way, I'll only have a 30% chance of getting the
sign right, and you'll only have a 10% chance of getting it right.''
(I don't recall anyone being insulted by this statement. :-)
