Think back to what you believe is the most outstanding accomplishment to evolve out of Physics Forums originality.

Of all our Physics Forums, of all our posts and threads, of mentors, advisors and members, what are the distinguished, real-breakthrough scientific discoveries that we have generated?

Has anyone published or contributed to a peer-reviewed article, written a book accepted by publisher of note, or invented a device of novel and successful application, inspired by discussions on PF?

:smile: i can't think off-hand of anything at the moment, and from the ones i have read have had info that other people know about. Do you have any answers or are you just as intrigued?
 
All the mentors/advisors are busy working on a secret world domination weather machine. Look for the island hideaway with the volcano shaped like Greg's head.
 
Wait, I missed that meeting... is that Greg with long hair, or Greg with short hair?
 
Every day we learn new things. Sometimes it's just a small fact or realization. No matter how trivial or random, let's start recording our daily lessons. Please start off with "Today I learned". Keep commentary to a minimum and just LIKE posts. I'll start! Today I learned that you clean up a white hat by spraying some cleaner with bleach on it (rinse before putting it back on your head!)
