Question:
I recently saw a special on NBC Dateline about a man known as the human calculator. They called him Mr. Math. I want to know more about his books, seminars, and activities. Also, what is his real name?

Hi Pam,

This is probably Scott Flansberg. While his homepage, featured at www.bensonassoc.com/web.html was down the last time I checked, I've found some ordering information for his books and CD-ROMS at /turboguide.com/data2/cdprod1/doc/cd-rom.hrnt/001/429.shtml and www.mdtl.org/bookstore/math.htm

Also check your local library for his books.

I did a web search for "Human Calculator" and found this link laedu.lalc.k12.ca.us/catdb/r233

Cheers,
Patrick
