It's time for inventors and scientists across the globe (and time) to party and the guests have all been invited. Can you tell who invented what based on their responses?
Bell phoned in his acceptance, instead of responding in writing.
Pierre and Marie Curie were radiating enthusiasm!
Einstein thought it would be relatively easy to attend.
Heisenberg was uncertain as to what to do.
Volta was electrified hearing the news.
Archimedes was buoyant at the thought
Ampere was worried he was not up to "current" norms of the party.
Boyle said he was under too much pressure.
Ohm resisted the idea at first.
I'm sure some of you will find these too easy to point out, but I found it amusing. I thought you might, too!
I'm posting one puzzle, riddle, math, or statistical problem a day. Try to answer each one and post your answers in the comments section. I'll post the answer the next day. Even if you have the same answer as someone else, feel free to put up your answer, too!

"Heisenberg was uncertain as to what to do."
ReplyDeleteOf course... if somebody could compensate for his uncertainty, we could teleport everyone to that party. =p
