Im the ranking Republican on the foreign aid appropriations subcommittee, so I know Tunisia well.
I have no trouble publishing in Soviet astrophysical journals, but my work is unacceptable to the American astrophysical journals.

Gravitational systems are the ashes of prior electrical systems.
If a problem is too difficult to solve, one cannot claim that it is solved by pointing at all the efforts made to solve it.
Scientists tend to resist interdisciplinary inquiries into their own territory. In many instances, such parochialism is founded on the fear that intrusion from other disciplines would compete unfairly for limited financial resources and thus diminish their own opportunity for research.
