I'd prefer they stay focused on
Combinatorial Matrix Theory.
Explore a variety of different
matrix properties with this Demonstration.
Amita spots another clue - a SHAPE painted on a door.

What do we think this shape means?

LARRY
I have received a tantalizing
invitation to join the D Zero team
searching for the Higgs boson.
CHARLIE
The God Particle. A continuation
of your spiritual seeking as well
as your quest for a Unified Theory?
Explore quantum mechanical probability density for two particles in a one-dimensional quantum well with infinite walls.
The axes correspond to the positions of the two particles.
CHARLIE
Not exactly. Think of a train yard--
AUDIENCE VISION
BIRD'S EYE VIEW OF A TRAIN YARD WITH MULTIPLE TRACKS, SEVERAL
TRAINS ROLLING THROUGH.
CHARLIE (V.O.) (cont'd)
Each player is a train coming into
the yard and we send them through.
But when Spectre's train approaches-
A SWITCH IS THROWN-- HEAVY METAL TRACK-SWITCHERS SWING INTO
MOTION, ALIGNING WITH A DIFFERENT TRACK, JUST IN TIME FOR AN
OMINOUS-LOOKING TRAIN TO BE DIVERTED TO A DEAD END.
END AUDIENCE VISION
CHARLIE (cont'd)
We sidetrack him without affecting
the rest of the players.
Two trains 100 kilometers apart head
toward each other, each traveling at the same speed. A bumblebee zigzags from one to the other until they meet and it
is squashed. How far does the bumblebee travel?
CHARLIE
Please, call me Charlie. I've
developed a new kind of math, a
sort of calculus of human
relationships-- based in Decision
Theory it can help people choose
better partners by predicting which
couplings have the best chance of
success.
