| Dear Bottomlander,
Einstein said what is remained:
==========
"I want to know how God created this world.
I am not interested in this or that phenomenon
, in the spectrum of this or that element.
I want to know His thoughts; the rest are details."
/Einstein/
===============
Dear Bottomlander,
=========
P. Kapitza has said about a science:
" The Science is what cannot be.
And that can be, is a technical progress ".
==========
And another interesting quotation
The modern physicist is a quantum theorist
on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday
and a student of gravitational relativity theory
on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday.
On Sunday he is neither, but is praying to his God
that someone, preferably himself, will find the
reconciliation between the two views.
Norbert Wiener

Dear Lloyd.
When I read the articles and comments
about basic problemes in physics
(quantum of light, electron, dark matter,
vacuum and etc....) when I think,
how clever all these authors are .
I am surprised, reading that clever answers
everyone gives , protecting his correctness.
They give various examples (sometimes very practical,
sometimes abstract) to prove their truth
It is nice, it is wonderful.
But...
But when the speech goes about vacuum T=0K
in the physicists brains the screen flashes
" It is forbidden to think " and brains of these
clever people stop to work.
Why?
Maybe the interdiction of Official church of Physics works.
Maybe the law of ethics works:
" Good bourgeois families don't speak about it ".
Maybe our school, education can be guilty in it.
For some historian of science it will be interesting
to analyze, how in the brains of modern physicists
and philosophers this taboo was arisen.
