Throwing hatchet

Cushing, I think you missed my point totally.

The comment was in response to a broad/blanket statement in the previous post - " I read that most pry-bars/cro-bars are made of 8670 steel !...I wonder if that is true ?"
My facetious response was pointing out that such statements the someone "read somewhere" were unlikely to always be true. Your colleague is a good case in point.
Hedy Lamarr was another excellent example of how looks don't tell intelligence (you young fellers will have to google her. Hint - you couldn't google her without her talent).

Apologies stacy - the perils of trying to communicate in writing. I was not trying to "complain" about your comment - i was (at least so i thought) trying to *reinforce" your point. I guess it did not come across that way. Again, apologies.

I usually do not respond to stuff like this, but... i know of this lady, dancer/ballerina, most guys i think would call her quite attractive. Accomplished author (both fiction and technical). Phd, researcher and professor in Chemical Physics at MIT. i studied under a guy whose doctorate was in chemical physics. THAT is hands down the most challenging material (conceptually and mathematically) i have ever studied (even more so than quantum mechanics).... and this lady teaches it at MIT. So much for "dumb and a money grubber" ...

Some would say this is the exception not the rule.

I was a research active prof in chemical physics for many years. Now I try to keep a small group going while I manage the theory program in chemistry at NSF. It's tough to do both, but I enjoy running calcs and trying new things too much to just let it go.

Richard , maybe you hear or even meet one Macedonian , close relative to me ? Now he is Research Professor in one of USA University , before that he was in Sandia National Laboratories ? His B.Sc. and Ph.D, are in physics ?

I was at Sandia for about 18 months around 2009 and I still do some work for them. What's his name?
