Galileo’s Homepage
If Galileo were alive today, what kind of home page would he have?
———- from Maureen McVerry of Santa Monica, CA
It would contain pornographic images of the Pope, as well as a Java animated image of the planet Jupiter, with the four biggest moons rotating around it. He might also include links to obscure pages like BusPlunge or Russian Amputee Women, but otherwise it would be yet another example of self promotion. If Newton had a web page, it would be indecipherable to all but the most mathematically gifted. Ditto for Einstein, with the addition of his favorite cartoons, probably Pogo, The Far Side, or Calvin and Hobbes.
