Re: Experimental Assault upon Physics

OK, "sterelogist" you are on: indicate one statement posted by Uncle Al that is inconsistent with extant physical theory other than the results of a parity experiment itself. Uncle Al will expedite the basis for your snit with two reading lists.

The short list:

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.

Share the love!
