One of the many intriguing puzzles in physics is the strange behavior
of the electron as it fractionalizes into two separate quasiparticles.
These quasiparticles, called spinons and chargons (or holons), carry
the electron`s spin and charge, respectively. In a new study,
physicists Cenke Xu and Subir Sachdev of Harvard University have
investigated this phenomenon, called spin-charge separation, and have
developed a model that unifies two previous theories to propose a more
complete electron fractionalization process.

"Ethics"  is simply a last-gasp attempt by deist conservatives and
orthodox dogmatics to keep humanity in ignorance and obscurantism,
through the well tried fermentation of fear, the fear of science and
new technologies.

There is nothing glorious about what our ancestors call history, 
it is simply a succession of mistakes, intolerances and violations.

On the contrary, let us embrace Science and the new technologies
unfettered, for it is these which will liberate mankind from the
myth of god, and free us from our age old fears, from disease,
death and the sweat of labour.
