why was this book banned?
"(his [John Gunther Jr.'s] ideas about physics were advanced enough to gain commendation by Albert Einstein)" I'm deleting this segment because it is very wrong. So far, I've read about half the book and there has only been one idea presented from John Gunther Jr. regarding physics. Also, Gunther Jr. never received commendation from Einstein, they were in very brief correspondence (regarding the previously mentioned idea) and Einstein merely stated that perhaps the two men could talk to eachother after Gunther's recovery. The author also implies that Gunther Jr.'s idea wasn't unique, but had also been preoposed by a few other scientists of the time. I instead will replace this line with (he discovered a new way to liquify ammonia). Like the previous statement, it supports the idea that Gunther Jr. was brilliant, however unlike the previous statement, it is 100% true. ;D Mojibaka 21:53, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
Has anyone else picked up that most of the external links don't match the article? They all refer to John Donne's poem, not to the book. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.81.255.254 (talk) 02:11, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] =
Some moron edited the page adding "Like oh my gosh..." and other ridiculous text, so I reverted it to the only edit that didn't include it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.158.103.242 (talk) 01:31, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
