I agree that it's a tough nut to crack. I know only a little bit about it
because my best friend in college was a physicist. However, when my partner
and other friends were reading it they kept asking me to explain what he was
talking about, and IMO he didn't do a good job of explaining it. Not that
I'm Mr. Quantum or anything, but I figure that if relatively smart people
reading it couldn't get the point, then the point wasn't well made.
