SUMMARY:Cafe Scientifique: 20th Century Physics Decade by Decade
DESCRIPTION:Pittsburgh Secular Freethinkers\n\nSpeaker: Dr. Fred Bortz\, fo
 rmerly of Carnegie Mellon\, author of many science books for children and a
 dults \n \nHope you had a great summer--it's back-to-beer-and-science time!
  (Not necessarily in that order--depending on your preference.)  Dr. Fred B
 ortz\, author of Physics: Decade by Decade\, will talk to us about a few of
  the many surprises that twentieth century physics had in store for physici
 sts who thought that most of the important questions had been answered.  Th
 ey fully expected to spend their careers refining theories and making more 
 precise and accurate measurements of universal constants\, but thankfully t
 hey were wrong. As Dr. Bortz writes: "Instead of tying up a few loose ends\
 , physicists pulled on a few snags and watched the entire theoretical fabri
 c of physics unravel. It would take most of the new century to reweave it."
 \n \nPlease join us for a rousing look at revolutions past\, which may just
  shed some light on revolutions future! We'll be giving away a few of the s
 peaker's books\, and will have others for sale.  As always\, there will be 
 fine food and beer to accompany the talk\, and a lot of friendly\, interest
 ing people to talk to.  Hope to see you there!\n \nTim Palucka and Angela S
 tabryla\, organizers\nCafe Scientifique Pittsburgh (www.cafescipgh.org)\n\n
