There are certain problems with having a wife who blogs. For example, if you say something funny to a bunch of your high school classmates, your wife is likely to scribble it down on a paper napkin so that she can blog it later.
Then, four months later, she re-finds the paper napkin. So today (ta da!) I’m blogging two fine Frank Wilczek quotes!
I went off to college planning to major in math or philosophy–
of course, both those ideas are really the same idea.
In physics, your solution should convince a reasonable person.
In math, you have to convince a person who’s trying to make trouble.
Ultimately, in physics, you’re hoping to convince Nature.
And I’ve found Nature to be pretty reasonable.
Now I’m headed to the blogless backwoods of NH–while I’m gone, read the folks on my blogroll, assuming they don’t all decide to take time off now also.
