Robert Austin:


Methinks you doth protest too much. Methinks the feedback is negative, for obvious

experimental and historical reasons which you won't believe anyway, so why bother? If you

can't figure it out by now, there is no hope for you.


I am afraid our British colleagues have come to the belated realization that they basically

have been fooled:

Not the APS, stubborn until the very end! Brave lads!! I am inspired to quote a famous stiff-

upper lip British poem to inspire you as you blindly charge ahead:


Forward, the APS!

Was there a physicist dismay'd ?

Not tho' the professors knew

Some one had blunder'd:

Theirs not to make reply,

Theirs not to reason why,

Theirs but to do & die,

Into the valley of Death

Rode the APS.
