Yes, we are rather shaked and stressed at moment, altough I can not say, we
didn't seen it coming. I, personally, really like how US police acted exactly like their russian
counterpart: e.g. sitting on their ass for whole month, waiting, so they can
declare person officially missing and then just press charges against whoever
looks most vulnerable. Well, probably I am wrong. Time will show.

the existence of quantized energy with the photoelectric effect.
In fact, the interpretation of the photoelectric effect went far more deeper than that. Einstein concluded that the electromagnetic field was quantized. Planck already postulated the quantization of the energy to explain the distribution of the blackbody radiation. Although revolutionary and "unbelievable", people were more inclined to accept it because Planck was making assumptions on the way matter responds to the interaction of radiation at a time when the composition of matters was completely unknown. Atomic models were still at their infancy and no real theory existed on that side of the problem. But Einstein was saying that Maxwell theory was wrong. That was a perfectly satisfactory theory able to explain all the known properties of radiation, such as interference and diffraction. Einstein was alone for almost 20 years in this position. Only with the discovery of the Compton effect and the formulation of quantum mechanics people recognized that he was right. But at that point, he was alone again because he didn't accept the new quantum mechanics with its probabilistic interpretation.

Thanks. This is where I made my quotation from.
There is no analytical solution. See here.

Yup, and Opera is just a poor imitation of Greek Drama.

It's in Google too, much more pleasant to read. Here.
