Tweet I first saw Clare Malone at 538 suggest it , then somewhere else – Kasich is in the race to be Vice President. It makes sense of course that any second-tier candidate would have this as the backup possibility. Kasich has mostly stayed out of the mud (he did attack Trump some last fall), and his staying in the race is tremendously helpful for Trump.
Alas, Wikipedia is for readers.Spider Robinson, in a speech/essay titled "Seduction of the Ignorant" a while back, pointed out a problem:—-excerpt follows——John D.

The students are naive but great and the administrators vary day-to-day between homicidal and delusional.

Tweet Elementary quantum mechanics quickly shows that harmonic oscillators (shown by the dotted line in the figure to the right) can only absorb or emit light associated with a transition between neighboring quantum levels such as between v = 0 and 1. Â To the extent that molecular vibrational motion is harmonic, this is an absolute rule. Oh yes, there also has to be a change in the dipole moment between the two levels of the transition which explains why homonuclear diatomics (N 2 Â , O 2 , H 2 ) don’t absorb in the infrared
