    • some physicists from 2nd rate institutions are pretty good

      it is 3rd rate institutions that I am not at all sure about

      (for ease of classification I am saying that I and KH attend 1st rate institutions, although our institutions rank noticeably less than MIT or Harvard, or even Berkley)

      • Of course, the last physicist worth anything was Albert Einstein.

        Now it's just a profession of meaningless losers in their tattered off-white coats mumbling incoherently to themselves.

                  Landau, Feynman, Georgi, Heisenberg, Dirac, etc.

                  I guess they don't count...

                          I thought Landau's performance in Ed Wood was first rate.

                              Labcoats are for wimps. Science is more fun when there's the thrill of messing up your DNA.
                              Exult in your existence, because that very process has blundered unwittingly on its own negation. Only a small, local negation, to be sure: only one species, and only a minority of that species; but there lies hope. [...] Stand tall, Bipedal Ape. The shark may outswim you, the cheetah outrun you, the swift outfly you, the capuchin outclimb you, the elephant outpower you, the redwood outlast you. But you have the biggest gifts of all: the gift of understanding the ruthlessly cruel process that gave us all existence [and the] gift of revulsion against its implications.
                              -Richard Dawkins
