"If you don't understand the hydrogen atom, you don't understand anything."

Nice! Always amazes me how different it is listening to the people that came up with the theory, the doers, than those that just teach it. These guys are always wonderfully humble, yeah we had a problem, we found a kludge, more we could do, look in this area, that is where there is room for improvement. Most university lecturers and these celebrity physicists on the web are dangerous, with their "absolute" knowledge. _Archetypal Entanglement A Beautiful Mind Kindle Books_
