Hope to entertain useful and interesting discussions here. I studied physics up to the modern stuff, which I found to be confusing and still do. Interested in history and want the physics community to be as well since it ties into what the know-how is utilized for.

I try to respect simplicity and to not be condescending towards complex people.
