For a paper in my college math class I need to interview 2 people that can give me reference for how math is used in my major. The problem is, I live in southern Utah and Physics professionals of any kind are about as common as leprechauns. I need at least two people who don't mind being used as a reference in a college paper to give a statement about how mathematics effects Physics. I know the answer already and can probably write a five page essay on the matter by myself, but alas, one must follow the rules of the classroom. Any help is extremely appreciated, and thank you for your time.
