On a completely unrelated note, screw the Millikan experiment. That one lab where we had to replicate it in undergrad with the world's shittiest equipment is probably the only reason I'm a mathematician and not a physicist.
My high school physics class took the Millikan experiment to a new level: we installed a calculator program in which oil drops were simulated by pixels moving down the screen, and you could press buttons to vary the simulated electric charge.
I wonder if I can blame becoming a mathematician on that, too.
/me stares in horror.
Undergrad. Millikan. Oil. Drop. Experiment.
