Just one woman in there, (that I was aware of). Perhaps if we had allowed more brilliant people into that meeting of minds, i.e. made it more acceptable for women to enter the field, they might have left with more agreeable faces.

Our scientific thinking power must have been reduced to nearly 50%. (They did let a measily few in).

Great video! I didn't know Einstein's "dice" comment was made over quantum theory.

That woman, I believe, is Madam Curie, discoverer of radium and a winner of a Pulitzer prize.

Pulitzer? She was a journalist too? Or did you mean Nobel prize? I believe she even won a second one along with her husband, later on. lemme check

edit: yep

Nobel Prize for Physics (1903) (together with her husband)
Nobel Prize for Chemistry (1911)
