[Leica] John Bardeen, was Re: OT Richard Feynman

[Marvin Levi <temil001@yahoo.com>]

Feynman was a scientist who happened to also know to
show off and act with a certain flair, and as a
result, came off as smarter than anybody else.

In terms of its impact on our everyday life, the
greatest physicist this century is none other than Dr.
John Bardeen. He won Nobel price TWICE, the first time
for the invention of the transistor, the second time
for the discovery, with two other fellow Univ. of
Illinois researchers, the BCS theory for
superconductivity. He was a very quiet and humble man.
