Ike has seen nothing to indicate that the Russians really do want a summit conference, but they are using the summit to split the Western powers.

The positive pi meson goes off the picture, but the antiproton hits a proton (4), creating two negative and two positive pi mesons, which shoot up and down the chamber...
