|content=Arguably the second greatest physicist of the 20th century as drawn by another in the top tier (some would argue, top 5). Quite an honor. | |content=Arguably the second greatest physicist of the 20th century as drawn by another in the top tier (some would argue, top 5). Quite an honor. | ||
The pair ([[Paul Dirac|Dirac]] & [[Richard Feynman|Feynman]]) are pictured at right. Dirac's odd leaning posture always reminds me: introverts need space from extroverts. | The pair ([[Paul Dirac|Dirac]] & [[Richard Feynman|Feynman]]) are pictured at right.

|content=@rcanacci @skdh Begin with Dirac, Einstein, Yang, Maxwell, Noether, Newton, Hamilton, Stuckelberg, [[Richard Feynman|Feynman]] as principle authors of the most fundamental equations and principles. And I'm not sure I am not stretching it slightly to appear broad minded. | |||

|content=Was not expecting to bump into one of the most inspiring scientists of our time. Freeman Dysonâs trajectory is a life to study. In particular his defeat of Oppenheimerâs opposition to [[Richard Feynman|Feynmanâs]] Sum-Over-Historys at the @the_IAS taught me a lot about how great minds spar. | |content=Was not expecting to bump into one of the most inspiring scientists of our time.
