      Most of them would have voted for Trump. Both elections.

      Education is extremely important.

        absolutely. Makes sense that the geniuses would vote for a true genius. A very stable genius at that.

          More evidence, as if any were needed, of vast election fraud in favour of Donald J. Trump. There's only two Americans.

          My dad was taught (well, lectured too, at least) by Lawrence Bragg - 2nd row, 3rd from the left. He said he was absolutely brilliant.

          I was only joking

            The cool thing is you KNOW none of them were photoshopped in.

              The two photos are not duplicates. Interesting.

              Bach, do you know the circumstances under which the photos were taken? Or if they are cobbled together in some way?

                Schrodinger, Pauli, Heisenberg, Dirac, Bohr, Planck, Curie, Lorentz, Einstein.

                Out of the 29 names in the B&W photo, those nine are ones whose work I have some familiarity with. Below I list the things that first came to my kind when I see those nine names.

                :::

                Schrödinger’s cat
                Pauli’s exclusion principle
                Heisenberd’s uncertainty principle
                The Delta Dirac function
                Bohr’s atomic model
                The Planck constant
                Curie with her radiation thing
                Lorentz function/transformation
                Einstein’s theory of relativity

                :::

                Just for fun, without looking things up, what comes to your mind for those names when you think of them?

                        An older friend of mine took a graduate chemistry class at Harvard with only 2 other students, one of whom was named A. Einstein...as in Alfred Einstein - close but no cigar.

                            From Wiki: "The Solvay Conferences . . . have been devoted to outstanding preeminent open problems in both physics and chemistry. They began with the historic invitation-only 1911 Solvay Conference on Physics, considered a turning point in the world of physics, and continue to the present day.

                            "Perhaps the most famous conference was the fifth Solvay Conference on Physics; held from 24 to 29 October 1927, the subject was Electrons and Photons, and the world's most notable physicists met to discuss the newly formulated quantum theory. The leading figures were Albert Einstein and Niels Bohr . . . Attendees Albert Einstein, Niels Bohr, Werner Heisenberg, Paul Dirac, and Erwin Schrödinger would be listed among the top ten greatest physicists of all-time, in a 1999 poll of leading physicists for Physics World magazine."
