"Very few of us are fortunate enough to marry multimillionaire girls who have 39-inch busts and have undergone frontal lobotomies." As for his reputation as a lady-killer, Tony humbly admitted it was deserved: "I've left my mark on thousands of girls across the country."<br /><br />To say nothing of millions of movie fans around the world. </i>Steven Colyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10435759210177642257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5303246073824127471.post-59019599741579772012010-09-18T11:19:20.760-04:002010-09-18T11:19:20.760-04:00Tony Curtis (#24) has had a serious stroke and is ...Tony Curtis (#24) has had a serious stroke and is comatose. My brother, who does theater with Tony's son Ben on Cape Cod in Massachusetts, gave me this information, and in his opinion thinks the co-star of "Some Like It Hot" with Jack Lemmon and Marilyn Monroe will be the first to leave this list.<br /><br />Which goes to show you how little my brother knows about medicine. It sounds like he is in the same condition as Ariel Sharon of Israel, and Sharon has been there since Jan. 2006. He's still alive.<br /><br />In any event, our heartfelt sympathies are extended to the whole Curtis family, including Jamie Lee.

Heh, it is either brilliant or ...Quantum computing? Heh, it is either brilliant or a pipe dream. It is also SO young. The pipe dream aspect comes from the fact we MAY never tame decoherence, which is its one nasty enemy. All sorts of brilliant people have made baby steps progress toward taming it, but it's a real bear in that field. What it boils down to is that protecting the fundamental particles from interactions with other fundamental particles you do not want them to interact with is hard as nails. They can isolate a single positron, play with it, make it dance, and even call them cute names ... but after a couple of weeks or 3 you wake up one morning and Paco the Positron had fled the coop. Headed out of Dodge. Headed out to the territories like Huckleberry Finn when he found out his Aunt intended to make him go to school. Vamanos.<br /><br />And that's bad. Think of what an unstable quantum computer (the only kinds of which we have, and may ever have) would do to the manufacturers' warranties alone!<br /><br />Still, I have faith that the engineers will eventually solve the problems, even if it takes a century or more. Seth Lloyd predicts in his book Programming the Universe we'll have quantum computer laptops ... in about 250 years. Ouch. I can't wait that long.<br /><br />Feynman was nevertheless right about the problem when he said "By golly it's a wonderful problem because it doesn't look so easy."Steven Colyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10435759210177642257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5303246073824127471.post-11277540178182570442010-09-13T03:23:25.762-04:002010-09-13T03:23:25.762-04:0010:1 may be too low indeed as ratio experimentalis...10:1 may be too low indeed as ratio experimentalists/theoreticians in some fields like condensed matter physics, but there are other fields where the ratio is inverted.

He drank too much, and he used his protractor as a swizzle stick, but that's because he always had a protractor on him. It was part of his thing. He was always happy. "Who needs complicated equations?" was his motto. He was quite angular.<br /><br />Just kidding. Good to see you're in Quantum dots. The applications are enormous. I have to believe the demand outweighs the supply in that field, so many $$$ should be yours after the 3-year hump ahead of you. <br /><br />I've also been thinking lately how many more Experimental Physicists there are than Theoretical ones. I'm thinking 10:1, or is that too low? The funny thing about government and business is, they pay for results. Experimentalists tend to come through that way. I'm still a big fan of Theoreticians, though.

Before you apply you have to take the <a href="http://www.randomhouse.com/princetonreview/catalog/display.pperl?isbn=9780375764912" rel="nofollow">GRE Math Test</a> and do well.<br /><br />So re-learning the stuff I've forgotten will take up the better part of the next year, after I've found a job. The soonest I can start is one year from now. I'll probably start out seeking to specialize in Geometric Group Theory, but am open to switching along the way. Who knows what the morrow will bring? Every Grad student is required to take the following grad level courses: Real Analysis, Complex Analysis, and Abstract Algebra.<br /><br />Good luck on your own quest.

My own mo...Peace yourself, and you're welcome.<br /><br />My own mother had not Alzheimer's, but Dementia which usually precedes that horrific disease, although Dementia doesn't mean you'll get Alzheimer's. Well never know if she would have, because her physical health also deteriorated. She was perfectly fine at 74 but at 78, it was all gone. So, before her passing, I hated the expression "it was a blessing." WHAT "blessing"?! They're DEAD!!<br /><br />Having witnessed said degradation, however, I know exactly what you mean.<br /><br />My own feelings about Death are it is inevitable, so don't worry about it. Death is part of life. What do you call the last page of a book? The end of a book. Same with Death. Thinking about Death as something separate from Life is where I think most people get in trouble, because IMO that's a prescription for depression. The BEST way to honor our ancestors is to have a great and successful life yourself ... it's what they would have wanted. Also my opinion.<br /><br />On a lighter note, I visited my local Mathematics Department at my local University today, and learned what I have to do (if accepted into the program) to get my PhD in Mathematics, which is my goal. So I'm pretty happy today, because it's doable. :-)<br /><br />And in the BEST news of all, I just found out I could save a bundle on my auto insurance by switching to Geico!Steven Colyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10435759210177642257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5303246073824127471.post-66181844538713118892010-09-06T18:44:15.015-04:002010-09-06T18:44:15.015-04:00When they died, Mom was 81 and Dad was 84. They h...When they died, Mom was 81 and Dad was 84. They had lived full lives, yet the future did not promise improvements for their mental nor physical health. The violence of the punctuation of their lives preempted what could only have been a longer if more gradual suffering. As shockingly traumatic as it was for their survivors, my folks sudden exit was a blessing. We should be so lucky. When I told my next door neighbor Mike about how my parents had died, he said, “I wish that could happen for my folks.” Mike's parents are in their middle 70s and their hearts and lungs are still good, but one has had Alzheimer's and the other has had strokes, with bad hips and bad knees, they suffer zero quality of life. There are worse things than dying. Though I will always miss my folks and must suffer the grief that will never go away, we rejoice that they are now beyond this world of pain.<br /><br />And as hard as it was for my siblings and I to give them up, we must take comfort that it is our duty to outlive them so that we may spare them the grief of losing a child. As grim as the grief of losing a parent is, the alternative is deeply more grim.<br /><br />I can also comfort myself that my parents knew how much I loved them. Mom would complain that I would smooch on her too much and Dad would have to reassure me that they knew how much I loved them. Once I had gotten those complaints I knew that mission was complete. They will always be in my heart and I think of them every time I look at our son. He bears both his grandfathers' name.<br /><br />The tragedy was doubled for me because my father was also my best friend. In my adulthood we formed a deeper bond through our mutual amateur interest in and conversations about physics and mathematics. Losing him is a loss I will never replace. I hear him in my head every day.<br /><br />Thank you for asking.<br /><br />My thoughts are with you in the loss of your mother.<br /><br />I have learned that grief is emotional entropy from the randomness that loss inflicts. It creates chaos for our emotional frames of reference. Overcoming grief takes work. This is one of the laws of emotional thermodynamics. We must do the work in order to not have it explode from us and tear us apart, volcano-like, while we have to pace ourselves through the work, least we be overwhelmed by the effort. We may not hold it off, but we should not dive in over our heads. I advise; slow and steady. Best: cry a <i>little</i> every day.<br /><br />Peacejimhttp://psychorabble.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5303246073824127471.post-68651491195831466542010-09-06T07:49:04.937-04:002010-09-06T07:49:04.937-04:00Yes, I too found out the hard way that a "too...Yes, I too found out the hard way that a "too long" blogpost gets printed regardless. No worries.<br /><br />I'm sorry to hear about your parents. Car accidents take too many of us. I don't see things improving with people using cell phones while driving, or worst, TEXTing while driving. Sheesh.<br /><br />I lost my Mom 2 years ago the usual way. They say it takes 2 to 3 years to get over the loss of a parent. I reckon so, but that first year is the toughest. Glad that one's behind me. Shock, depression, anger are the 3 stages of grief I've heard. Sounds about right. Same goes with losing a job, which is like a "little death." How you holding up that way?<br /><br />Are you from Texas? Is it true everything is bigger down there? :-) An ancestor, Isaac Colyer, was an Austin sculptor who did the gargoyle work on the State House in 18-whatever. Problem was, when the job was finished, they had no more work for him! So he moved to Brooklyn.

His real name is Lubos Motl, the "Howard Stern" of Mathematical Physics. We're both multi-degreed graduates of "Mr. Magoo and Robeson too, on the banks of the old Raritan", which is to say, Rutgers University.<br /><br />Speaking of which, Howard Stern may make an appearance here, as his profitable move from public radio (which he was kicked off of ... sound familiar Lubos?) to private Radio ... turned out to be negative in terms of his popularity.<br /><br />Lubos, this may shock you, but I actually defend you more than most, probably at the expense of my reputation, but all kinds of hells will freeze over before I let THAT bother me, which is something I'm sure you can relate to.<br /><br />To answer your question:<br /><br />If you put 2 + 2 together (and I bet you can because you are one of the FEW people who know what a Monster group is), I put people on this list for several reasons, among them my sadness when I read an obituary, and thought the person died a long time ago (Gelfand of Rutgers is an recent example), and realize I missed a chance to meet them. For example, John Nash and Freeman Dyson live close by, as I live 12 miles from Rutgers and 30 miles from Princeton. If I can un-wrap myself away from this 'puter, I'd like to meet and shake their hands for their contributions to Humanity.<br /><br />But the main reason I guess is: WHY should Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan be famous, when Mike Atiyah's and Is Singer's contributions to Humanity are so much more important?<br /><br />In other words, this is my attempt to make Math and Science superstars at least as half-famous as Hollywood ones. Is that wrong in your opinion, Lubos?Steven Colyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10435759210177642257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5303246073824127471.post-21534550000030502512010-09-04T12:25:03.015-04:002010-09-04T12:25:03.015-04:00It had to take a lot of time - but holy cow, it...It had to take a lot of time - but holy cow, it's so disgusting. It's like you're eagerly waiting when these particular people die. <br /><br />What is the criterion to put them on this list, instead of any other famous people who are living today?Luboš Motlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17487263983247488359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5303246073824127471.post-75333102941878933942010-09-04T08:03:59.493-04:002010-09-04T08:03:59.493-04:00jim and Arjen, thanks much for your excellent sugg...jim and Arjen, thanks much for your excellent suggestions, much appreciated. As you can see I'm starting to incorporate them. Well done, lads.<br /><br />jim, you wrote:<br /><br /><i>You are my junior, yet own the more vintage marriage: I salute your higher status, sir!</i><br /><br />Well first, please don't call me "sir." I work for a living. :-p<br /><br />No, check that, my time with the US Census is finished ... I'm officially a bum again. "Sir" away!<br /><br />As far as "higher status" goes, um, I'm probably the ONLY male of our generation to make love to one and ONLY one woman in our 3rd decade of life. That depressed me (foolishly) for about a decade and a half. I got better. :-)Steven Colyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10435759210177642257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5303246073824127471.post-2752838209302459822010-09-03T16:42:35.511-04:002010-09-03T16:42:35.511-04:00Doc Watson:
