Whoopi met him on ST:TNG. And he visited the Enterprise.

I saw that! Although I think he would have been more open-minded about aliens. He did write a time-travel book.

Hi fw,

If you have not read Loving Frank by Nancy Horan, you might like to. The book was published in 2007. It is fictionalized biography.

It is an interesting read. Frank sure was a horndog, highly egotistical, and could not handle his money worth a darn, but I sure do like his work.

(Please forgive me if I sound like I am giving you homework. (blush) It was just a thought. :))

He used to do that naked often.

Quote:

And then there were Franklin’s “air baths.” As a young man, he had been a long-distance swimmer at a time when swimming was something most people did only to escape drowning (one of his greatest developments, in my opinion, was the swim fin). He used dumbbells and could, by a slight stretch, be said to have invented the StairMaster by walking up and down the Craven Street house’s stairs (still there, still uneven) for exercise. And early most mornings, before he set to work, Franklin would sit, he wrote to a friend in France in 1768, “without any clothes whatever, half an hour or an hour, according to the season,” at his open, first-floor window, letting the air circulate over his, by then, considerable bulk. What the neighbors thought is apparently not recorded.
