Recently Washed Wine Glasses For A Guest Speaker

Like ordering a fancy "deconstructed molecular gastronomy experience" and getting a plain sandwich cut in half. The disappointment is PALPABLE! For the curious minds: quantization in physics actually IS just discrete values rather than continuous ones - which yes, means integers sometimes. The universe's greatest mysteries occasionally boil down to counting. Mind = blown (or not).
