I suspect that most of them won't answer this silly challenge at all, 
having learned long ago that patdolan isn't worth bothering with.

"The world's greatest living physicist"! Is he forgetting patdolan, Ken 
Seto, Richard Hertz, Richard Hachel, Laurence Clark Crossen, Maciej 
Wozniak, etc.? Maybe he meant the seventh greatest living physicist.
