Talk:Philip Stott

message: I notice you have declined to explain why having journal papers published is relevant to criticizing the IPCC...  --JonGwynne 20:14, 22 May 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Because Stott is considered an "expert" by virtue of his distinguished academic career.  However, his lack of obvious expertise in the area (as would be demonstrated by pubs), undercuts this claim.  Guettarda 16:08, 23 May 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Lots of experts aren't published in acadmic journals.  To argue that this undercuts their expertise is simple snobbery.  Also, criticizing the IPCC doesn't require specific expertise - it only requires objectivity and the ability to observe the flaws of the organization.  As you point out, Stott's "distinguished academic career" is sufficient evidence of his expertise in areas related to that careers - which includes issues related to the environment and climate.  --JonGwynne 16:28, 23 May 2005 (UTC)

text: I don't agree this is snobbery. It's an important point to make. Since he has no expertise in this field, Mr Stott's opinions carry no more weight than any man in the street - in fact, much less so given his links with bodies such as the Scientific Alliance. Determinedly promoting a particular point of view for emotional or political reasons is the anithesis of genuine academic inquiry. --Noel Darlow —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 84.92.93.50 (talk) 20:52, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Narsarsuaq Air Base

message: The Air Base construction was started in 1937, that included bringing food stores such as "cold storage eggs" to the storage
caves in 1937.  I was a Rawinsonde Operator/Surface Weather Observer in 1953-1954 in the 8th Weather Squadron. I personally saw
them open egg crates packed in 1937.

Talk:Hugh J. Addonizio

message: I am interested in exploring if this person (H.J.Addonizio)was one of my relatives. He and my maternal grandmother shared the same, rather uncommon, last name. Her husband was also a tailor,as was H.J. A.'s father,according to the biographical data.I see other commonalities as well. I have ,sadly,lost touch with any relatives that could shed some light on my background. Thank you. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 205.188.117.6 (talk • contribs) 
I can tell you that Hugh J. Addonizio had at least one brother. His name was Sabby, which I believe was short for Sabastian. He was a recreational director at Mt. Vernon elememtary school until shortly after his brother was elected mayor. He was then promoted to Director of Recreation for all Newark schools. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rayblake@charter.net (talk • contribs) 
I am also distantly related to this person. His siblings were Sabby (Sabatino), Lena, Ida and Victor, parents Frank and Livia. I hope this helps!  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:8800:1507:DC00:811E:B505:9DF:ECB2 (talk) 07:43, 11 June 2017 (UTC)

thread_title: Name

message: I've looked up BoxRec rankings and I'm convinced that the "divisional" rankings are only divisional on paper. While there is an option to display rankings for a specific division, BoxRec does not divide any boxer's career, accomplishments and results by division at all. Those definitely aren't divisional rankings - those are only rankings of fighters who finished their careers in the given division. Oleksandr Usyk scored a lot of points at cruiserweight, but because his last fight was at heavyweight, he is ranked among greatest heavyweights of all time and not ranked among cruiserweights at all, even though he became an undisputed champion there. Same for David Haye, who is ranked No. 29 heavyweight of all time but not ranked among cruiserweights at all. But by far the most telling example is Roy Jones Jr, currently ranked as the greatest cruiserweight of all time - because his last fight was at cruiserweight. He is not ranked among light heavyweights at all.
While I don't see any issue at all with mentioning BoxRec all-time pound-for-pound rankings, mentions of the website's all-time divisional rankings should be either removed or worded differently to avoid spreading misinformation and mislead the reader. Instead of stating "this fighter is ranked as the n-th greatest welterweight/lightweight/featherweight etc.", something like "this fighter is ranked as the n-th greatest fighter to have finished his career at welterweight/lightweight/featherweight etc." would be more precise.

message: Marmora and Lake, Ontario was redirecting to this page.  However, Marmora & Lake is the official name of the municipality and census subdivision - therefore, it should have its own page.

Talk:Quantum tunnelling

message: The intro says 
This tunnelling leaves the barrier unaffected (i.e. no hole is created in the barrier)
What can this possibly mean?  The potential energy barrier is immaterial: it is a hole! Johnjbarton (talk) 00:17, 7 September 2023 (UTC)
thread_title:  No hole? 

message: The intro has a sentence:
*  "It's as though a sheep on one side of a 100m tall wall suddenly appears on the other side without going round."
I get that this analogy might help get the energy barrier concept across. However, it makes quantum tunneling seems "magical", as in defying physical laws. But QM is the physical law and the fact that the wall stops the sheep is the magical part. In quantum tunneling, the barrier is entirely conceptual, an artifact of our model of the system. Envisioning the barrier as a wall leads to ridiculous questions like "is there a hole in the barrier"?
Are the sheep helpful? Johnjbarton (talk) 15:56, 16 May 2024 (UTC)
thread_title:  Sheep 

message: The section "Introduction to the concept" heads the entire article off in the wrong direction.
The following statement is false:
* In quantum mechanics, a particle can, with a small probability, tunnel to the other side, thus crossing the barrier.  
It is this kind of statement that makes quantum tunneling so puzzling and description of it borderline misinformation.
In quantum mechanics there is no particle on the inside of the barrier. It is not possible to measure a particle then send it through a barrier and find it on the other side. We randomly observe particles outside of system we believe to be meta-stable. The model that predicts this result has a barrier (to provide meta-stability) and probability of observations. That's it.  The randomness is what is non-classical. 
Someday I will get the energy to get refs and redo this section. Johnjbarton (talk) 01:05, 24 May 2024 (UTC)

I think I would even prefer a Chromium(VI) Oxide article with its very own Table of Properties and maybe put the chromic and dichromic acid discussion in there.  I'm not sure that there is that much to say about chromic/dichromic acids.  However, there are separate articles on Chromate(incuding dichromate) and Potassium dichromate.
