Another boring day in the dreary life of a researcher

Einstein said, about his theory on the photoelectric effect, that it "may turn out to be useful fore some research workers in their investigations". You've got to love that. That's like Jesus saying that maybe someone, somewhere would remember him.

Today I almost had champagne and cake twice. First there was a solar cell result to celebrate along with a birthday, in the morning. Then in the afternoon, celebrating the international physics year, the anniversary of Einsteins publications and the Nobel Prize winner Kai Siegbahn's (who works down the hall from me) birthday... there was another offering. I actually passed on the second. Right now I can't think of why..
