Default Re: The Dr. Otis Peterson Thread

I don't understand how this confusion could have happened with a picture of the guy on the page. Have they met him or not?

1 July 2009
Important correction: We have now learned that this is NOT the same Pete Peterson that we met with. Although there is a resemblance -- it is not the same man.
I have now arrived back in Europe, and Kerry is starting her day in LA. This LANL page of Dr Peterson (see below) has just been brought to our attention - we didn't even know about it. A 'polymathic' physicist is a good way to describe this astonishing man who has done ground-breaking research in a wide variety of areas and who - based on what we understand - would probably have been awarded several Nobel prizes if the more interesting work he has done was ever admitted to the public domain.
