What's New Between Physicists?

"What's New Between Physicists?"*

*One of the basic equations of theoretical physics is e = hv,
where v is the Greek letter 'nu' (pronounced new).

By simple algebraic manipulation, this is equivalent to v = e/h.

Consequently, if one physicist were to ask another,

"What's new?" it would not be surprising if the other were to answer, "e/h."

"What's On A Musician's Mind"*

*A violinist was returning home from two-week trip.

As he drove up to his house, he saw that it had
burned to the ground. A fireman stood over the smoking rubble.

"What happened?" said the violinist.

"Well sir," said the fireman stiffly, "your conductor
came to your house this morning, stole all your
valuable possessions, and burned down your house."

The violinist staggered. "The conductor came to see *me*?!"
