...needles, about a tenth of what the average blood donor loses. By calculating the amount of .nitrous oxide that is absorbed by the brain, he determined the rate of blood flow. Thus he was able to measure the way the brain uses up its chief sources of energy: oxygen and glucose. Already he has demonstrated that unconscious patients use only half the normal amount of oxygen and glucose, that schizophrenics use as much oxygen for their irrational thinking as a sane person does for normal thinking...
...what the particles were. Dr. Gartlein is sure that they are solar protons hitting the outer fringes of the atmosphere at about 300 miles per second. When they capture electrons from atmospheric atoms, they give off a little light. Most of the aurora's light, however, comes from oxygen and nitrogen atoms which the solar protons have jarred into luminescence...

At war's end, he set up the H. J. Rand Co. (the initials were reversed to avoid confusion with his father) with a capitalization of $80,000, to develop his washer...
