The test was four pages, front and back, handwritten answers. In 50 minutes. I'll have nightmares tonight at the memory. Sorry! You are one of five people who would get this. Ooops! four people. But actually I did well, I sort of lived and breathed physics, the same way I lived and breathed playing music as a teenager. It became an obsession. It seems only the obsessed survive it and flourish in it. Right, and I will start a support group for the obesessison-deprived. I am not sure there is a building big enough. That's when I knew I wasn't a physicist. And it wasn't a *severe* sort of physics program. I have a minor, which should be interpreted as "holy cow, don't ask this guy anything about physics!" Well, you probably know more than most folks do about it, Yes. I got a fecking *B*, man, before I gave it up. A 34 on the final, yo. No, I really just found another obsession - indeterminacy. Indeterminate forms are like... and you probably adopted a way of thinking that most folks don't experience, either. Yessir. And thanks to the people at "The Big Bang Theory" for giving me the courage to admit it. You really like me. - Les Cargilll |

And the ratio was better than a paltry, not to mention fabricated, '90%' You got a citation for that statement? http://home.pacbell.net/kidwell5/aebio.html " At the time of the publication on the theory of relativity, the people that read the papers met them with skepticism and ridicule. As the other papers were published, they were viewed the same way. Since these papers were so advanced, only a few physicists even understood them, and they slowly started to realize what a true genius Einstein actually was. " Any contemporary quotations? Annalen der Physik published five papers by Einstein in 1905, and that supports the view that his work was taken seriously. I could not find contemporary reactions to it. I didn't say there was a 'no publish' conspiracy against him, that tactic is apparently reserved for AGW fanatics, nor did I say 'no one' was, at least, willing to consider it.. Einstein was criticized and/or attacked on a number of grounds, some legitimate and some not (such as the NAZI "Jew science" propaganda) but the salient point, which everyone wants to ignore, is that Einstein's theories were eventually accepted on the basis of falsifiable predictions and experimental observation of said predictions, I.E. science, not 'it sounds good' and 'trust me' nor by refusing to debate, destruction of raw data sets, secrecy, and ad hominem against critics. Contrary to the popular belief, Einstein's theory of relativity wasn't unanimously accepted just because of one eclipse. Here's a 1932 German article highlighting an ether drift experiment. http://blog.modernmechanix.com/2007/...n-ether-drift/ But where are the contemporary reactions? -- Michael Press |
