Please, science only in this thread.

Yes, but we should give equal time and space to alternative ideas like Xenu creating the universe.
You know what, lets just agree that there is a 50% chance of Big Bang and 50% of Xenu.
Remember - It's important to be comfortable in your own skin... because it turns out society frowns on wearing other people's

It's weird how Watson and Crick are more celebrated than Wilkins and Franklin. My guess is that W/C won the Nobel for their work while the others did not.

The Nobel prize is only awarded to live people. By the time the DNA discovery was awarded the Nobel prize, Franklin had been dead for 4 years, so would not have been considered for the Nobel.

Bingo.

The only woman to have an element named after her.

That, and my dad did his doctorate with her nephew. Don't think he ever met her, though.

Not into blondes, but I do liker her. Reminds me of my first serious relationship/fiancé. Man was she hot, but nuts. Still very hot after having 4 kids with some guy.

I'd argue that the crystallographer should have gotten at least equal billing in figuring out the structure of a molecule!

What do you teach?

Their husbands should get some share of the credit as well. After all, they were the ones who gave their wives permission to study these things.

Yeah. Those women were only able to achieve those things because they got there on the backs of the free slave labor provided by their husbands.

Sure, you think all those people were there. That's what *you* say. But I have it on good authority that Pauli wasn't invited, in fact was excluded.
