Newton proposed “particles” and Huygens proposed “waves.”
In the end, I think that they agreed with each other.

Newton seemed to be a shy, retiring type. From what I understand when ever any of his thesis were challenged he just withdrew into himself and his solitary studies.

I'm driving to the sun in my Subaru Outback.

I'm confident that boxer engine will get me there and with decent gas mileage.

You've got to be impressed by something that's 93 million miles away and still hurts your eyes when you look at it!

For that million hours to be realistic, you’ll have to avoid the 405 freeway in L.A.; otherwise, all bets are off!
