Isaac Newton is a friend of mine.

Sorry about the delay but I just forgot the blog. My short term memory must be going.
The photo is of two inspectors who had come by to inspect the Sonex under construction (in better days). They are critiquing the horizontal stabiliser.
Isaac Newton is a friend of mine. When I ponder the attraction quantum mechanics a ind string theory have for me it is hard to understand. Why the fascination with something I will never see or smell? Then in one of the books I've read lately, there it was. A quote from my friend and guide to the most mysterious interaction of all, gravity, Isaac Newton. "I was like a boy playing on the sea-shore, and diverting myself now and then finding a smoother pebble or a prettier shell than ordinary, whilst the great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before me." How simple and yet describes the complex thought process of a great scientist. It's all out there waiting to be discovered.
Finding the Higgs boson at the LHC will prove that we're all on this flight together.
