Time-Dependent Properties of the Hair of Physicists
To be honest, I only looked at the pictures. :) Pictures of Lev Landau are pretty amusing too, and my understanding is that one of the reasons that She Who Shall Not Be Named was infatuated with me was that I bear some resemblance to Landau. I just wish I were in his class as a physicist!
By the way, it would be nice to catch up by audio or video IM in the near future.
Fun little read, thanks.
