An interesting review. I also never would have considered television a drug, but I can certainly appreciate that perspective.

"Our electron binding energy equation for the 1s orbitals are not exact, but very close, especially considering all elemental ground states are calculated from first principles. . ."

Uh-oh, the Aether is back. I'm keeping an eye on this one . . . the toroidal models are interesting.
