Before I became a Physicist, I was certain they knew everything. They knew why the stars were
in the sky; How electricity really worked; The constituent parts of matter; Why electrons in atoms don`t
just spiral into the nucleous. As I said, everything. Now that I am a Physicist, it would be real nice to
be able to be so certain. In essence, what I have found out about Physics and the Physical universe, is
that I live in a very very dark room and being a Physicist involves searching for even a glimmer of light.
However, what we normally find is that, in a dark room, one is much more likely to walk into a wall than find
a glimmer of light. Additionally, walking into walls, hurts.
There are however positive things about being a Physicist. The most important of which is, I know where some
of the mysteries are. I don`t know the answers, but I see the mystery. And who dosen`t enjoy good mysteries.
This page is dedicated to those very mysteries. The things I don`t know. (You can believe me that this is a
much larger list than the items I do know.) I`ll throw in the parts I know and probably indulge in some idle
speculation about the parts I don`t. Sort of "esoteric babbling."
Why would I do this? I will probably show my stupidity more that once. Its primary purpose is to try and convey
some of the sense of mystery that I constantly see in science. A secondary purpose is to keep myself amused. There
is probably nothing that I can present here that you hevn't already seen elsewhere.
(In no particular order) A short list of subjects I indend to cover is given below. It will rapidly become apparent
that I am not an expert in any of them.
These page will probably take some time to write.
