Nature abhors a vacuous mind.

Dear Prof. Pope:

I'm wondering if in your extensive wanderings and interactions with physics illuminaries you had the opportunity to have discussions with a certain Dr. Arthur Compton. His thoughts on photons seems to be very scattered and I am curious to know if you have any opinion on his work. I was talking to him just the other day and he didn't recall having met you.

Re: Nature abhors a vacuous mind.

I'd love to tell that tale,...

Dear Dr. Pope:

You have my sincerest sympathy and empathy. I know what it is like to have someone totally miss my point. May we both have more success in future endeavors.

By the by, I think you have made a slight error in calling SLAC the "Super-Linear Accelerator Center". I believe it is actually named for its location and the acronym stands for Subterranean-Linear Accelerator Center. Just a nit.
