The Top Ten Physics Highlights of 2002
Ocelot Wreak writes "Physics Web has a cool summary of The Top Ten Physics Highlights of 2002. These include anti-atoms, neutrino oscillation - a finding that requires new physics beyond the Standard Model, defying the second law of thermodynamics, and using neutrons to measure quantum gravitational effects, amongst others. For some reason, the Slashdot Effect and the latest research on iPod-based Beowulf clusters were not included..."
FP Fubar BABY!
Got DEW??
Huh??
From the FAQ:
These are just mistakes on the part of the staff. They happen. We have posted over ten thousand stories in our history. The occasional duplicate is inevitable.
What they neglect to mention is that of the 10,000 stories posted on Slashdot, 4,000 of them were duplicates and another 1,000 of them were rumors, incorrect, or just plain trolls.

Yeah, but if you use English; you can just say $SHOE_SIZE instead.

editors troll you!
"7. Magnets in nanoscale logic devices
Physicists in the UK built a nano-metre scale logic gate made entirely from metal that works at room temperature. ... If such devices could be built, they would be ideal for mobile applications such as phones and smart cards because the data could be stored without a power source."
Isn't that essentially core memory on a smaller scale? Everything old is new again...
$#!^ happens, but why does it always have to happen to me???
Well, doesn't that make your naughty parts tingle!!
You are supposed to separate ideas using a comma. Your post, corrected, as follows:
Homer: "Lisa, in this house, we obey the laws of thermodynamics!"
The purpose of separating ideas in a sentance is to make sentances 1) negligible, 2) organize information presented to the reader, 3) prevent run-on sentances, and 4) allow the author of a sentance to proof-read the quality of the formed sentance by randomizing each comma-separated idea to judge the quality of the chosen words and their formation.
You, sir, have violated rules #2 and #3! OFF WITH YOUR HEAD!
What would be integrated and between which points to find the area enclosed by the two curves shown Here?
