A young man approached his family physician and said, "Doc, I'm afraid you'll have to remove my wife's tonsils one of these days."
"My good man," replied the doctor, "I removed them six years ago. Did you ever hear of a woman having two sets of tonsils?"
"No," the husband retorted, "but you've heard of a man having two wives, haven't you?"
Superfluidity of liquid heliumIn 1938, the superfluidity of liquid helium at a temperature near absolute zero was reported in the journal Nature. Two articles were published together since the discovery had been made independently by both P.L. Kapitza in Moscow, Russia, and also by Jack Allen with Don Misener in Cambridge, England. Kapitza was eventually awarded a share of the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1978 for his inventions and discoveries in the area of low-temperature physics.« |
