Anyone have any objections to the insertion of the following sourced material:
- Morrison joined the Young Communist League in 1938 and the Communist Party of the United States (CPUSA) in 1939 while studying physics at the University of California Berkely.
- Source: * Philip Morrison testimony, 7 and 8 May 1953, "Subversive Influence in the Educational Process," U.S. Congress, Senate, Committee on the Judiciary, 83rd Congress, 1st Session, part 9, pgs. 899-919.

Tell us more. How long did he remain a member? A week? Forty years? A card-carrying Communist at Los Alamos in the inner circle of the Manhattan Project? Or had he left the CP before than , just as Oppenheimer had (long) left it? Groves kept Bohm from a clearance, why not Morrison? (For example of an interesting question.) Tell us more of this most interesting phase of his life. Is that ref the Congressional Record, or what is it? GangofOne 21:42, 8 December 2005 (UTC)
Removed, now broken, link to SETI.org. I have always admired Professor Morrison. It is a shame that SETI.org has dropped this link being the influence he had for their use of microwaves. He seem to be born of the same enthusiasm as Richard P. Feynman. (IchBin 19:42, 1 January 2006 (UTC))
- Speaking of Feynman, I've heard that he and Morrison shared an office while they were both at Cornell. Does anyone know if this is true? Rglovejoy 02:18, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
