Haven't heard about that......

O. and R. Nickalls, who say, "We can only assume that Feynman was not
really trying...."


But if you can't picture what happens, maybe you don't want the
technical explanation.

      Comment: We have omitted the mathematical analysis of this
      complex phenomenon because it involves tensor analysis! 

I don't even understand what a tensor is.  (If you can explain tensors
to me, I'll stand you to coffee and chocolate chip cookies while you
do it.)
