Update Nugget to “On the Existence of Coffee-cups”

Re the authors of “The Stability of Many-Particle Systems” (1966):

They couldn’t explain why it was  that ordinary everyday objects wouldn’t just go up in smoke.  It was quite anomalous.  Inert matter just lies there in a kind of steady state, ticking over silently in a metaphysical sort of way but this ordinary and plain fact of experience  was incomprehensible to physics.

-- Ed Regis, Who Got Einstein’s Office? (1987), p. 185
