...colleague Lester Germer in 1925 inadvertently stumbled on experimental proof of a crucial aspect of quantum theory. Davisson noticed that a stream of electrons beamed at a crystal of pure nickel was diffracted, a phenomenon that is characteristic of light waves. Electrons had been thought to exist only as sub-atomic particles until, just a few years before Davisson's observation, the newly developing quantum theory suggested that electrons could behave as both particles and waves. Here was proof, and it won Davisson a Nobel...
...depending on the perspective, either half empty or half full. What Ronald Reagan announced on Tuesday confirmed weeks of leaks: the U.S. would stay in compliance with the SALT II treaty for the moment by dismantling two Poseidon missile-firing submarines to make way for a newly launched Trident sub, but it would also continue equipping B-52 bombers with cruise missiles at a pace that will break the treaty's limits by year's end. It looked like a typical something-for- both-doves-and-hawks move, leaving in doubt which was more important: the continued compliance...
...Fred quickly became the apologist for the University's cold policy. But, behind the scenes he was also involved in the final resolution. By the time the grates were removed, everyone was relieved. Harvard's fair name left the media spotlight, the bums again had their sub-standard shelter, and Leverett students got charged up over an issue...

At the same time, at least some of those with whom I have had occasion to speak about the subject feel the importance of bringing their whole selves through the door with them. It is hard to feel spiritually comfortable unless you feel genuinely accepted...
