Re: looking for something



The Straight Dope is a newspaper column published in the Chicago
Reader and a number of other places. There is also a web site hosted
by America on Hold and an ever-expanding series of books. The poem in
question, one on the subject of Schrodinger's Cat, can be found in
the first book called (oddly enought) The Straight Dope. It is a real
hoot.

You might be interested in another parody on modern physics, a poem called
"The Straight Dope," by Cecil Adams. It can be found in Physics Today, May
1984. I also have a copy of that one.
