This commissario is the creation of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donna_Leon">Donna Leon</a>, an American living in Venice.

I think he might end up changing his preferred science before he becomes an adult, but for sure he looks like he'll be a good scientist!<br /><br />The reason of my remark is that when I was a summer student at Fermilab I got to talk to a physicist who was lecturing us newcomers, and he insisted on polling us on Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22973357.post-65703477766908937232007-01-29T15:25:00.000-05:002007-01-29T15:25:00.000-05:00Dear Rae Ann,

To live in Venice (... sorry if that's stupid, but this reminds me of Commissario Brunetti, hasn't he also two kids, and a wife who is a teacher?) and work and do research in Galilei's University sounds like a dream to me ;-)...

He's always thinking about how the universe works and is always asking questions that I can't usually answer. Actually, his questions were part of what got me reading physics blogs. Sometimes he wishes he could talk to a real physicist instead of me. ;-) (I am a little overprotective about Rae Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10239791074376508016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22973357.post-66568620335490059262007-01-29T08:14:00.000-05:002007-01-29T08:14:00.000-05:00Very interesting stuff... great post!Very interesting stuff... great post!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
