I think that an understanding of the quantum world will help a person to be enlightened. It is not necessary though. There are those who love and those who doubt. These courses are for the doubting Toms. People would like to change their careers at times. Its not required. You can sit thru these courses as if you are there LOL A sample course below: http://ocw.mit.edu/OcwWeb/Physics/8-01Physics-IFall1999/VideoLect ures/detail/Video-Segment-Index-for-L-34.htm
quote:
FREE FOR ALL The following sites are launching pads for finding "open courseware," which makes college course materials such as videotaped lectures, outlines and quizzes widely accessible. http://www.ocwconsortium.org This site for the OpenCourseWare Consortium has links to more than 150 institutions that offer open courseware.
http://www.oercommons.org This Open Educational Resources (OER) Commons site aims to connect educators with open courseware in their subject areas.
http://www.uocwa.org This publicly financed site for the Utah OpenCourseWare Alliance links to seven Utah institutions and all their free offerings
This is the best news I have heard in recent times. Education going open. Learn about Physics and Psychology from the MITs and Yales (and much much more)

thirteen, I am glad you are getting a kick out of it NAM, Yeah sure , even for doubting Nelly's? I admit I have never heard that phrase before. Doubting Toms comes from christianity. Thomas asked Jesus to show his hands after the cruficifixation. Whats doubting Nelly? Listens, yes that movie talks about it. One needs to understand and appreciate the basics before watching that movie. They can't explain every thing in 1 hour can they? Created man must understand his place in this universe and where he is going. It just makes his journey trouble free LOL

Hey, thanks for the link! That's what the Internet is for hey!Cheers, Dean. ------------------ I realized it for the first time in my life: there is nothing but mystery in the world, how it hides behind the fabric of our poor, browbeat days, shining brightly, and we don't even know it.
