I really wish I had those brain cells back. After nuke school I stayed pretty interested, but simple nuclear physics is about as far as I go. QM and sub-atomic particle physics sort of looses me. I just expect them to continue to find infinitely smaller particles the same way we continue to find the Cosmos infinietly large. At some point they become one in the same and here we are. |

Unlike the number of stars in the sky or the number of angles that can fit on the head of a pin, our number of brain cells is finite. Slay them and weep.....

Think of it more like culling the herd of the weak ones so the strong have more to work with!!! |

What an apropos misspelling by a math-type person..... maybe we could call it an Euclidean slip |

Master 1441 North edge of nowhere | Subject: RE: For the Nerds: HIGGS BOSON! (probably) Not my creations in the least, but still: Higgs Boson jokes... If we can control the Higgs field then we can really build Weapons of Mass Destruction. Discovery of Higgs boson a blow to Bravo's upcoming reality show America's Next Top Standard Model. "Yo mama's so fat, she tore a hole in the Higgs field!" ...and my GF said that if CERN can find the Higgs Boson, then why can't I find her...oh, nevermind.
