[edit] More welcome!
You might also enjoy the discussions at Wikipedia:WikiProject Physics and Wikipedia:WikiProject Mathematics. -- linas 22:31, 16 December 2005 (UTC)
And, I should say, glad to have you here. Personally, I've been wanting/planning on spending more time working on quantum computing, but keep getting distracted by mathematics that is three degrees removed. In fact, I vowed to be somehow employed in quantum computing in five years time, but so far my progress has been slow. Perhaps your acquantance will help me refocus a bit. linas 22:37, 16 December 2005 (UTC)
I replied at length on my talk page. You can also continue the conversation here (as that way it might be less disjointed): I am "watching" this page (the "watch tab" at the top-right), so I'll notice when you write here. (Watching the talk pages of people you know is not uncommon. Its how people communicate.) linas 04:46, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Thanks for your kind words
I just wanted to thank you for your encourangement with my research. It certainly is a chore, and I am getting a fine sense of why most people without credentials who try this kind of thing fail miserably. However, I seem to be getting ample opportunity to prove myself and my work. I assure you that I will keep on pushing and working to get it published. --EMS | Talk 06:24, 18 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Did I delete a reference to your article in Nature?
User:linas has said I deleted a reference to an article of yours on the Bell's theorem page. I don't see where, but if I did it was a mistake and I suggest you revert my changes.--CSTAR 17:26, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
- OK caught it and fixed it. I reverted somebody's edits because they contained what seemed to me some strange comments such as "Wikipedia does not allow external references" etc..) In my haste I hope I didn't delete something worthwhile.--CSTAR 18:58, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

- Well, I thought I'd introduce you two. CSTAR used to be the "defender at the gates" of the QM articles, keeping away the cranky/misguided edits. And, while CSTAR was away, Dave showed up and promptly nuked a couple of cranky edits in this same class of articles. So I figured you should meet, given the same set of general interests. linas 21:31, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
