Theoretical Musings
Dave Bacon is a theoretical ski bum who is also a pseudo professor. His research is on quantum computing, his scientific passions extend to everything in physics, mathematics, computer science and beyond, and his personal pleasures include making wine, playing poker, skiing, camping, and daydreaming (although not all of those at the same time.)
Nothing he says on this blog should be construed as having anything to do with his employer or his dog.

Congrats to all!
What are these fellowships? Google throws up nothing (could it be Dave's spelling?!)

Aha!

That correlation with a certain other prize really is quite startling. Well done guys!
