: I can only hope that Brian Greene is not waiting for a reply.
:
: I ask why do dumb F***s posts this infantile crap in a physics
: newsgroup, since it becomes obvious that the majority of posters have
: never cracked a textbook on the subject?
:
: Hope you can explain that one to me, and yes, I am a graduate
: physicist after spending 5 years in undgraduate study, working through
: all of the assigned problem sets, suffering through all of the all
: night cram sessions, and finally passign all of the exams.
:
: Physics is pretty logical, and if you carefully learn the basics in
: Physics 101, and follow through for the next 6 or so years of intense
: study, you willl eventually have acquied sufficent knowledge to
: pontifiate on the subject, and possilblh be even in a position to
: dispute their ideas.  Until you reach this level of knowledge, it is a
: rather good idea for everyone else to sit back, crack their textbooks,
: and keep their pie holes closed.
:
: Too much crackpot, ignorant crap is today being posted on sci.physics.
: It's time to slam the door in the face these ignorant assholes who
: post this nonsense!
