Rose: Over thanksgiving break I was listening to this podcast that was named, "Archimedes good, Galileo bad". The entire podcast was about how Galileo was not as smart as his contemporaries. Like, at the time there was this famous problem, finding the area under a cycloid. It's like 3. He mailed this to all his friends like Descartes. And Descartes, in his usual arrogant manner, was like "Just recently... I mean just yesterday... well actually earlier this morning, I received this problem in the mail, and after just an hour, I have solved it completely; it really wasn't that hard". But Galileo couldn't do it. He tried to cut out pieces of paper and weigh them accurately... Class (mumbling): Calc R&E... Rose: Yeah, like Calc R&E, and he got pretty close to 3, and he said that, but he was like "The answer is fairly close to 3, although from experimental verification, the answer seems to be slightly greater than 3". Basically, Galileo was not that smart as our history textbooks make him out to be.

//Modsim //Beginning of class Ostrander: Listen to my podcasts. //Later, Rose walks in //Immediately Rose: Pham I was thinking about you. You're crazy. //A few sentences later Pham: The universe is expanding. Rose: So? Pham: So it's divergent. Rose: Just because something is growing doesn't mean its divergent. //Uh oh Rose: Adding up an infinite number of things when it diverges is infinite, its MEANINGLESS. Pham: But the third law of thermodynamics says universe is expanding. Rose: It doesn't make any sense! It's like when you go to the dollar store and buy one of those horses that, horses that... //3 hours later ...horses that, horses.... horses that when you put them in water start growing. You say "OH OH its growing its divergent." //Bass boosted Pham: What do you mean? It makes sense. Rose: So you're saying the universe is a divergent series. Pham: Yes. Rose: Will you write that down, so there's a record of you saying that?
