Amusing
So, I stole this from Allison's Facebook (Allison is a girl I met via Facebook, who is also staying at Random Hall next year), who stole it from National Geographic.
"The concept of dark matter has been around for decades, but cosmologists were slow to embrace it. That might have been because one of the first people to suggest it was a brilliant but abrasive genius named Fritz Zwicky, born in 1898. Zwicky's personality didn't encourage a fan club. He once called his colleagues at the Mount Wilson Observatory "spherical bastards," because, he said, they were bastards anyway you looked at them."
Anyway, just thought I would share.
By the way, I saw V for Vendetta for the 6th time today.
And for those of you who I haven't told yet (i.e.: no one), I memorized the V alliteration from that movie :D. It's just that awesome. If you ever feel like hearing me recite it, I'm more than happy to show off :-P
Good night, all.
