What do you know about bubbles?

 

There were bubbles in my drink tonight. ;) I used to have a cat named bubbles. There is a lot of science behind them involving surfactants, surfaces, molecular interactions, fluid dynamics and stuff. There are bubbles in sci-fi things and they get used in entertainment by magicians.

 

I've been working on something for about 10 to 15 years and it is kinda succeeding, so I thought I'd take advantage of a voucher from my local offering a half price bottle of bubbly wine. It was very nice and I had fun drinking it and socializing with people tonight. A happy night! :)

 

One of my old Physics lecturers used to do special talks on bubbles. I attended his 10 week course on solving the Shrodinger equation for the hydrogen atom using spherical polar coordinates in my first year at uni. I missed the opening lecture and man! it was tough to catch up with. It was all maths and I'd never really done spherical polar coordinates or wave functions much before. You had to use different methods to solve for each term with r, theta and phi. Man he could drone on as well, lol.

 

Anyway, - bubbles.. Cheers!
