Jerry--

Oh, gosh, as much as I'm fascinated by quantum physics and such, I will not
even attempt to go there. I thought it quite fun to see the cat and the
razor in the same sentence. :)

Any time I am faced with an unknown term on an Internet
message, I try to look it up on a search engine, such as
Metacrawler.com.  Saves me from displaying my ignorance,
which is considerable.

One of the first things that I learned when switching from an
English major to Engineering was:  "An engineer does not have
to know everything, but he must know how to look it up"
