Chat @ the Einsteinufer, Berlin: My friends Annette Heisenberg, Martina Planck, and Else Schroedinger discussing the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics -- or something.

Motto

There is no such thing as a scientific method for ensuring objectivity. There are methods -- approximately one for each scientist. ... It has been very common to train young people to believe in a scientific method. ... In fact, no one works that way in science.

Note

This piece of html-code could be restored from one of 'sif-san's' intRAnet servers after FB-8 mysteriously collapsed into a heap of rubble on August 17, 2010.  Leading experts -- from the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Central Intelligence Agency, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms, the National Security Agency, the U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration, the 'sif-san' Safety Office, the D.C. Metropolitan Police, the U.S. Capitol Police, The U.S. Postal Police, the U.S. Secret Service's Uniformed Division, the U.S. Park Police, the D.C. Metro Transit Police, the D.C. Protective Services, to name but a few ... -- are still debating the cause of the collapse.  Meanwhile a host of theories has been floated, ranging from a terrorist attack (the ubiquitous Arabs, local weirdos, ...), to an asteroid gone astray, to an ether-peroxide explosion in room 4016.  Some people believe, however, that the beautiful 1960s-landmark simply could no longer stand the Advanced Regulatory Science going on inside... .

Unfortunately, the source code of our page was damaged in some 'sectors' and some links were 'broken'... .  The dedicated raiNeT.net staff went out of its way to preserve the essence [Lucinda Williams] of this historic e-document, and would like to apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you.
