I must say say that while I am in constant admiration of how experimental physics progresses, it is in my honest opinion dwarfed by the accomplishments of the theoretical physicists a century ago, laying down an incredibly solid foundation upon which we are still building and one that has proven surprisingly strong. Cheers, Badeskov Edited for confusion between century and decade...ahem, a bit late here :-( Edited December 30, 2012 by badeskov Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
