we started reading a book called "The Theory of Almost Everything" by Robert Derter - we're currently on page fourteen...
...and the author has gushed about how awesome the Standard Model of Elementary Particles is, like, at least six times already? sometimes for a page or more straight?
I ... don't want to tamp down Derter's enthusiasm - the Standard Model /is/ cool, that's why we wanted to read a book about it - but the repetition feels a trifle redundant...
