Thank you DR. Steven Manly and all of our EAR fans

Thanks everyone for tuning in tonight to E.A.R. 
Our guest, Dr. Steven Manly, was incredible, and has given us a lot of food for thought that I will probably be thinking about for months to come. I think my brain melted trying to digest all the information he shared with us tonight.
Be sure to pick up his book 'Visions of the Multiverse' if you want to "expand your horizons"!
We had some really interesting news and reports from Kim and Sharon tonight as well. If any of you want to check out the " Alien stick figure", here is one of the videos about it :
 Let us know what your thoughts are by posting a comment below!
Thanks everyone, and have a howling good night!

Thursday, April 14th -- Dr. Steven Manly joins us to discuss his book "Visions of the Multiverse"

Picture Steven Manly grew up as a free-range college brat in North Carolina. He received an undergraduate degree from Pfeiffer College and Ph.D. in physics from Columbia University in New York City. After moving up the faculty ranks at Yale University, he moved to the University of Rochester where he now resides and terrorizes students in the introductory physics course sequences. Professor Manly works at high energy accelerators around the world where his research probes the structure of matter and the forces of nature. He frequently lectures on his research at international scientific conferences and has published over 150 articles in scientific journals.
Professor Manly’s abilities and efforts in teaching and outreach have been recognized nationally and locally. He was named the NY State Professor of the Year in 2003 by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, and was honored as the Mercer Brugler Distinguished Teaching Professor at the University of Rochester from 2002 to 2005. In 2007, he received the Excellence in Undergraduate Teaching Award by the American Association of Physics Teachers.
Recently, Professor Manly completed Relativity and Quantum Physics for Beginners(Steerforth Press, November 2009) which is a light-hearted, graphical look at two of the most exciting intellectual developments of the 20th century. In Visions of the Multiverse, Professor Manly takes the reader on a tour of different multiple universe reality concepts and explains in accessible terms why it is many leading physicists are convinced that we are in the midst of a new Copernican revolution.


This is going to be a really interesting discussion. Don't forget to jump in thet chat room to ask our guest a question and hang out with other listeners!
