It’s the birthday of physicist Richard Feynman, a gentleman who left us many important breakthroughs in quantum mechanics and electrodynamics, but is best remembered for his personable character and warmth, and his belief that science is a thing of beauty. …
Here’s an excellent example of the incredible distortion of facts that is so common to our political and economic discussions today. I hope you’ll check out this fascinating article. So many people are being led around by the nose with …
