Schrödinger Humor
« on: May 07, 2005, 07:00:11 PM »
 Schrödinger is driving along a road at night, speeding like hell. He wizzes by a cop and gets pulled over. The cop comes up to the car and asks "Do you know how fast you were going, son?". Schrödinger replys, "No, but I know exactly where I was."
Most Common Suggestions I Make on the Forums.
1. Start by writing a balanced chemical equation.
2. Don't confuse thermodynamic stability with chemical reactivity.
3. Forum Supports LaTex

Yeah, other version is a Schrödinger train - we know its exact speed but we are not sure it is still on tracks :)

Is this a suggestion I should learn English? ;)

i dont understand why the hyseinburg uncertainty principle is used on schrondinger, but it's just so hilarious that one can't be sure if the train is on the track. I will freak out if the train driver isnt sure of that. LOL
