Lovely picture! Either I don't get the meme part or I can't find Saddam.

If you ever find yourself among theoretical physicists and/or astrophysicists and need a conversation starter, just ask about unit systems or unitless/natural measurement systems. There is no other profession that is more obsessed about that topic.

Just to put this here:

Every time I see a reference to Jackson I can only think of this...

This has always been my biggest gripe with the exposition of this game. While studying physics I did the bare minimum of lab work and then dove into my theoretical specialization.

I remembered it being Newton's gravity potential, but looking at a picture it's just a big blur and could equally well be the force. Anyway, I applaud Ross as a physics layman for calling the scientists out.

Makes sense. Wigner's contributions are everywhere in physics and parts of math. Must've come from somewhere.
