Nice find!
:thumbsup:

now if we can only find one that shows how somthing can have a spin of 1/2.

If you really want to be confused, think about the fact that you have to rotate a spin 1/2 particle twice before you're back where you started.

That's a pretty good explanation of quantum wierdness :)

The very last scene apperas to be of the Salmon Springs Fountain in Portland, OR.

Interesting, because I'm interested in physics, especially theoretical physics.

Look at this guy, though. Glasses, goatee, superhero suit that somewhat resembles an HEV suit... I think this is what Gordon Freeman did in his retirement, after the Combine were long gone. The strange mannerisms can be explained, too. Wouldn't you be a little crazy after single-handedly fighting off two alien invasions?
