Fun Stuff

 

 
  Vital life sustaining nutrient, Caffeine. Vital life sustaining nutrient,
AKA Caffeine.
Richard A. Smalley floating in a giant cup of coffee, during exams. Me, during exams!  
     
 

My hero Archimedes,
"Give me a place to stand,
and I will move the Earth!
"

My hero, Archimedes, quoated saying,

Where would science be today, if Archimedes' knowledge hadn't been lost?

 

Previously, Newton and Liebniz were thought to be the first to create calculus concepts, independently of each other.

However,
Archimedes is now known to be the first to develop integral calculus, recorded in his book, "The Method," approximately 2000 years before Newton or Liebniz.

     
  Picture of robot built by Richard A. Smalley when he was a child.

I built this robot in high school. Programmable by means of a detachable keypad, the robot could carry out simple maneuvers. Every boy should build his own robot. However in retrospect that only age can provide, I think the responsibility of caring for a pet dog would have been preferable.

I also built a telephone, picture coming soon.

 
Me solving a rubric's cube:
 

When

Y = 2X^2 + 7,
then Y' = 4X

Isn't calculus fun!

Picture of Richard A. Smalley's childhood dream.

Childhood dream.
