As for the Led Zeppelin track that SpaceTiger and ShawnD like so much - that one's about a disputed mountainous territory in the Indian Subcontinent, not the fluctuations in the vacuum expectation value of the energy of a quantized field! :biggrin:

The latter is actually the "Casimir effect", so the word I mistakenly used was the son of Frederick I and Princess Sofia. :wink:

Didn't know you were a history geek. That settles it I guess!

PS: Kashmir is one of my favorite pieces of Led as well. :approve:

Why not? The band is innovative, the song is well-written, and the lyrics deliver a powerful message. You find that more questionable than a Monkees song? :smile:
