All of us, browns, pinks, blacks, whites and any other color that is relevant to you, will give proof of our love and loyalty to our country when the time comes...
...this was highly exciting news to the nearly 600 physicists from 38 countries gathered at the Fermi accelerator. If gluons really exist, they are the first strong proof of an esoteric yet extremely important new physical theory called quantum chromo dynamics, or QCD. Although more experimental work will be necessary to establish the existence of gluons, already some bold theorists are using QCD in an ambitious attempt to succeed by other means where Einstein failed. That could eventually mean a union of all four of nature's basic forces -gravitation, electromagnetism and the nuclear strong and weak forces. Predicted...
...Masterpiece Theater." In this two-part series, the season's opener, they share the pleasure of revealing one of France's best-kept secrets: Jean-Paul Sartre is a very funny man.
