I had a Physics teacher at Memphis State that told us what a millijoule was. He said it was James Joules little sister.

I scratched my head on 3 of them...but enjoyed the other 18. I was a fan of the chemist/plumber one.

Yep...and that one works in Spanish, too. It's hard to get punny and make it work in two different languages.

that dude is awesome.
Best teacher I had there. I almost changed my major. I had him his first semester there. He had to take a couple of days off to go back and defend his dissertation.

I loved Dr. Marchini - when I had physics in the mid-90's he wore a leather jacket straight out of 1972 & drove a mustang convertible.

I think he still meets with a group of other profs every Friday for beer at Garibaldi's. Stop by and say hello.

Pretty sure it was fall of '68, but might have been spring of '69. My memory ain't what it used to be. He had done everything but defend his dissertation, which he did early that semester.
