    collaborative story :)

    He was tall. She had forgotten how tall. He was very thin, almost emaciated. All those years in prison had not been kind to him. He looked worn, scruffy and had a very strange look in his eyes. Almost as if he knew, what was going to happen. He couldn’t know! Unless… ? Amber stepped aside and...

    Ask Me Anything ...

    Thanks, Idun. I hope I will get the opportunity, one day. I think Bohr did feel responsible - partly anyway - for the nuclear bomb. Because his mother was of jewish descent, he was forced to flee to Sweden in Oct. 1943, and from there he went to England and later US to work on the nuclear...

    Ask Me Anything ...

    I must admit, I haven't seen it. I'd love to, though. I don't know that much about it, except there is a lot of myths concerning what was actually discussed at that meeting. Heisenberg went to Copenhagen to participate in a scientific conference arranged by the Germans. Bohr and his...

    The play, I think, Idun is referring to is "Copenhagen" by Michael Frayn. Hobitten

    Are you - by any chance - babling about the meeting between the two nuclear physicists Niels Bohr and Werner Heisenberg. The meeting did take place in Copenhagen in September of 1941. You can read all about it in the following link to Niels Bohr Archive: www.nbi.dk/NBA/release.html :cool...

    New Books

    Books for 50P and £1!!! That could never happen here. Books are quite expensive here. A cheap paperback costs about £10. Hardbacks cost up to £30-40. You can get 2nd hand books, but they are not always that cheap. It depends on the quality of the book, whether it is out of print or not, and...

    The landlubbing sort. Never found my sea legs. But, someone has to stay behind - and tend to the land, stock and offspring.

    Oh, I see... But you are right, of course. We vikings, we do so love mashed potatoes. We are even prepared to yank it out of people's mouths. (We do prefer the mashed potatoes whipped up with a little milk, butter and seasoned with salt, pepper - and nutmeg. You think you could swing...

    I have actually lived in England for a year. And been back on a regular basis, to visit friends. :cool: I must say, you still have a long way to go. But compared to say, Mordor, I would call you civilized. :p What happened to the table cloths? You don't use table cloths. You don't use...

    Given my Scandinavian nationality - and Viking ancestry - I must choose the Vikings. Never were there a more upright, heroic, altruistic, peaceloving, righteous, fair and brave people. :D :D So they murdered a few here and there? So they raped a few here and there? That doesn't count in...
