Nobel Awarded to Scientists Who Learned to Control Quantum Systems or as conservatives say ‘Lies Straight From the Pit of Hell’ (Rep. Paul Broun (R-Ga.) last month dismissed evolution, embryology and the Big Bang theory as ‘lies straight from the pit of hell’ to convince people they don’t ‘need a savior.’

This year’s Nobel Prize in physics honors two experimenters…Serge Haroche, 68, of the Collège de France and the École Normale Supérieure, both in Paris, pioneered the sculpting of a quantum state of light and the control of its interactions with a single atom. David Wineland, who is also 68, of the National Institute of Standards and Technology in Boulder, Colorado, developed techniques for controlling single charged atoms, or ions, and showed how they could be used to perform computations.
