Top Dogs

  • Steve (1.5E-4 zm) ... You can cure anything with a good velocity kick. ( more quotes)
  • Reba (0.11 ym) ... You've taken the absolute value of the weirdness.

SCRUM-Slaves (i.e., grad students)

  • Valerie (0.099 ym) ... If it doesn't have an accretion disk, it doesn't have gravity.
  • Michelle (1.5E-4 zm) ... If it can go through your body without killing you, it's not high energy.
  • Miguel (7.8E-5 zm) ... (not yet quoted)
  • Curtis (1.7E-4 zm) ... Some problems don't exist for people who start late.
  • Mark (0.10 ym) ... I introduced a fudge factor and assumed there was nothing wrong with it.
  • Nestor (1.5e-4 zm) ... (not yet quoted)

SCRUM-Alum (i.e., the graduated...)

  • Dave (7.8E-5 zm)... I'm writing my lectures down from one side of my brain to the other.
  • Andrew (1.4E-4 zm) ... Everything that is true to first order is true. There are no second order effects in astrophysics- only the need for better data.

(special note: 1 zm (zeptometer) = 1E-21 m, 1 ym (yactometer) = 1E-24 m) )
