modern chemists don't measure molecular masses in daltons, they use gram/mole. Daltons aren't used until you get into larger molecules like proteins, as in "that protein is 70 kDa (kilodaltons) in size".
I can't find the actual quote, but here is an article talking about the law he signed saying that no memorial on the Mall should be made until 25 years after someone's death...
The quote is...(down at the bottom of the article) There's also the small matter of a law that forbids any memorial on the Mall until 25 years after the honoree's death. It was Reagan who signed it.
Regan himself was opposed to naming anything (momuments, ships...etc) after living people. He was once quoted as saying that he thought a president should be dead at least 25 years before people decide if he was good enough to have a monument or ship named after him.
Agreed. Give me angst ridden anyday.... BTW - i found a great dist. when i lived in NYC and they recently started distributing over the web. check out www.middlepillar.com for some of those hard to find goth/industrial titles, they're pretty well stocked...
Actually, I am an ACS member (don't ask...;) and have the PDF, i don't know if (due to copyright) is OK to post, but if people are interested i can up it... Note that the reference on the Nature site is wrong, its actually pages 8927-40 (if you want to look for the HTML version).
