John Dobson is a great popularizer of astronomy. While he was a Buddhist monk he invented the Dobsonian alt-az mounting, used in many amateur "point and shoot" telescopes. But his views on the nature of the Universe are somewhat "unconventional". You can read his thoughts at http://www.johndobson.org/jarticles.html and perhaps draw your own conclusions. > "even people at Caltech don't know why inertia > happens, they only know how it happens." It's a good line, which applies to anything fundamental. If you answer a long enough chain of "Why?" questions, eventually you have to stop at something (currently!) regarded as fundamental and say: "That's just how it seems to be." So in the end, what we are left with as an "answer" to our original "Why?", is a very detailed description of /how/. Mike Yahoo!
