This frustrates me. I always
have Sokal's work as a reminder of what, for me, could easily be nonsensi-
cal speculation. I remember once talking with Heinz Pagels, at that time a
well-known particle theorist, about my work, and he said he didn't mind it
at all, just don't call it physics!

Some things are just too close for comfort. Something there is that likes a

Jim arrived on the scene all tall, dark, and handsome so it took a
while for people to figure out that he was smiling that big, straight
white toothed smile because he really had no clue what was going on.
