re: #232 EPR-radar
Academic freedom sometimes leads to unfortunate/scandalous results. William Shockley was a great physicist who got into ‘race science’ and eugenics late in his career while he was a Stanford professor.
I deny that Shockley was a great physicist. John Bardeen and Walter Brattain worked in his lab when they invented the point-contact transistor. He tried to talk them out of their approach, but didn’t mind sharing their Nobel Prize. (John Bardeen is the only double physics Nobelist.)
