Does anybody know a good philosopher or two with time on their hands?

Just out of curiosity: why a philosopher?  Why not a
scientist/mathematician? The book looked interesting when you brought
it to Friam.

I'd recommend a Scientist with good Mathematical skills who also
understands the broader context of Science and Mathematics which
probably makes them something of a Philosopher as well.

There are plenty of Philosophers who would not have much to offer here,
but possibly as many Scientists and Mathematicians as well.
