		<description><![CDATA[^You are wrong... almost all of theoretical physics belongs to mathematics :) .

The RSA encryption method, used by all major banks, cyber-security firms, and anyone who uses the internet, is one example among many of &quot;pure math&quot; (in this case number theory) serving an extremely vital function in the &quot;real world&quot;. Physics is merely an interesting subset of applied mathematics which happens to apply to our particular universe; pure math such as the theory of primes can be said to exist in any universe, or even independent of physical reality, thus being universal truth.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We can speak many things about Nature and GREAT Physicists, but  ladies of mathematics  let be serious: 
It is written:  “You will recognize them by their fruits”.

Thus what fruits mathematics brings: only theory that is equivalent with  thoughts  moreover the theory without application(practice) is only thoughts about sex or in the better case is a simple masturbation)

Fruits of Physics: 
All that you see around you is due to physics(nowadays medicine or chemistry or army, computers, cars, buses, airplanes...)
And don’t tell me that Electricity was discovered by mathematicians!
Now, can you imagine one day  without electricity? 
Moreover, now the physicist work in order to obtain quantum computers, By the way the simple word of quantum it is so far for all mathematicians, also theory of groups, differential equations (in fact all mathematical analysis belong to theoretical physics!!!) all this things was started from physics and are developed also by physics!!!

Conclusion:
1 Each physicist from the start is a greatest philosopher (see history of philosophy)
2 A theoretical physicist can solve any problem of mathematicians but not inverse(mathematicians cannot solve even a simple problem of physics)that’s why we have many mathematicians and a few of physicists(in order to get insight in physics you must be very wise  because that is not easy at all, and it is not given for all ordinary people(I mean mathematicians)). It follows that a real physicist are a genius. 
3 Physics is more than sex.
&quot;Physics is like sex. Sure, it may give some practical results, but that&#039;s not why we do it.&quot; - R. Feynman]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ed: Oh, darn. I&#039;ve assumed it&#039;s a Feynman quote because I&#039;ve seen it attributed that way and it fits his character, but a quick googling seems to show that a) in generic contexts it&#039;s given as a Feynman, without any citation, and b) in Linux sysadmin humor circles it&#039;s attributed to a Paul Tomblin, without any citation. (Or to P.T. and Malco(l)m Ray, but the first seems to have said the quote, the second added &quot;They&#039;re both messy, but physics can get you in much more trouble.&quot;)

Seems likely I was snookered by the old tendency of quotations to fall towards more and more famous attributions, because the process doesn&#039;t usually work the other way.]]></description>
