Random quote from Adelman, on belief in the sciences

"If I plug a rheostat into the wall, and take an ohm-meter and calculate your resistance, and then I get you to hold the two leads, I can calculate how far I blow you across the room. I guarantee I'll make a believer out of you!"

--Professor Adelman, on proving Ohm's Law to a nonbeliever.
