Dr. Winkel: "I call it 'Yo'."

"So who is absent? Nobody?"

[re: written on the board]
AIM: What has Woddy Allen to do with the expansion of the universe?

"So what has this to do with the expansion of the universe? And Woody Allen, ja?"

"So you cannot go downstairs during the break; that is impossible."

"There are fire-trucks in outer space and they are leaving each other."

"These atoms are emitting light. If I torture them, if I heat them..."

"Surgery, exactly, they make a hole in your body. They make a hole and they look in."

"Waves will certainly be on the test... <later in the period> waves may be on the test as well."

[re: passes around something for the class to look at]
Andrew: "What are we supposed to see?"
Dr. Winkel: "Ah, that is the point, you cannot see it."

"Sarah, I pick on you today because I want to attract your attention."

"So how was the homeroom? Was it a fun homeroom?"

Someone in class: "We have gym today."
Dr. Winkel: "What do you mean by that?"

"I didn't understand because of my ears your question."

[re: 10 class participation points]
"I have an infinite number of these 10 points."

"Be a little bit careful, don't look all the time."

"These waves are in phase... so you are in a certain phase of your life now. You are teenager. There are certain characteristics. You are not quite grown. You are thinking."

"You should accompany your visit to the classroom by reading the book as well."

"Don't be shy, ask now. Not during the test, not after the test. It cannot be affected."

"How many opportunities do I have to do it wrong here?"

Dorcas: "Dr. Winkel, did you mark me absent?"
Dr. Winkel: "Yes, I am surprised you are here. Were you hiding under the table?"

[re: the answer to a question is "Hooke's Law"]
"Hooke. Captain Hook. No, it was not Captain Hook."

"What is a certain gas that is tortured to emit light."

"They excite the nuclei to somehow emit spectrums."

Dr. Winkel: "So, what made you pick #1?"
Harrison: "I had a feeling."
Dr. Winkel: "I had a dream, huh?"

"Any questions? Don't forget to ask now, not on the test."

"Erick Romaine. What do they want from you when they ask this question?"

[re: the Physicus disk is missing/stolen]
"So if you see someone with such a disk, please tell them we are so sad and want it back."

[re: someone starts to erase the board]
"Ah! No! Don't erase that! We need that. I am teaching that class so I know we need that."

"I told you about the small worms that are traveling through space that are independent of each other."

[re: talking about proving some physics theory]
"...but that is none of your business."

Someone: "Dr. Winkel speak German!"

Someone else: "Is Physicus German?"
Dr. Winkel: "It could be your name."

Entire class: "Ooooooh."
Dr. Winkel: "You can see it works, yes, oooh."

<written on Gregory's homework in bright red letters> "Not accepted"

"If you go to these cigarette distribution machines - do you have another word for that?"

"So if we go to the microscopic world..."

"You make me believe I have to go to the ear doctor and get this equipment."

"Ja, so that was a very good test, I really have to admit that."

"Ja, that is our important definition for today that we go into detail tomorrow."

"Actually I did not hear the question, that is the problem."

"Actually, that is a nice question with the lightening bolt. We should do it."

Dr. Winkel: "So what is your answer?"
Someone: "No."
Dr. Winkel: "It is pretty short, but it is right."

"Our AIM today is that you have a headline..."

"How do we get the field line [walks to window] it is really snowing!"

"Ja, but what's going on in the bathroom? Are you having a party in there? Three, at one time!"

[re: absences]
"You never know if they are out killing someone... [the police would say] how is it possible that you marked someone in class when they were out killing someone?"'

Dorcas: "Dr. Winkel, am I marked absent?"
Dr. Winkel: "Yea, you are absent and marked here."

"That is why I was walking around like crazy and drawing wectors all over the place."

"What is it called... you have them on the shore and you like to step on them and they hurt."
[Sea urchins]

"You cannot go to a store and ask for half a charge... You can, but they will not have it."

Someone: "Dr. Winkel, can I go to the bathroom?"
Dr. Winkel: "Yes, but you will be missing something important. It is up to you, if you think it is more important to follow your..."
<silence>

Dr. Winkel: "Did I tell you about the ice pail experiment?"
Class: "No."
Dr. Winkel: <looks at watch> "Then I do it in a few seconds."

"That is the famous ice pail experiment... like the champagne."

[re: someone asks him to change the test date]
"I cannot move the test for you. You are important to the world, sure, I believe, but I have other students too."

[re: Richard has a box of Powerbars]
"Richard, you have some powerfood so you should be able to answer."

"Faraday was an alcoholic, he was always drinking and always had an ice pail for his champagne and he was quite drunk when he did this experiment. Aha, I am making all of this up."

"This one is a little more difficult... fancy... sophisticated..."

"No, you just scream to the class 'negative' so I answer with something that makes no sense to me."

"Who has this 'not paying attention' look in his eyes here."

"Let me draw a picture" <starts to draw> "I cannot draw, not at all."

"So today, I want to give you a basic introduction"
<writes on the board "Aim: Basic Introduction into Current Electricity">

"The electron actually - I like the word 'actually' today."

"It is lifting up the electron and putting it in an elevator with a doorman."

Harrison: "Dr. Winkel, how can we write 5 pages about 5 pages?"
Dr. Winkel: "This question is flawed. You can write 200 pages about one sentence. Harrison, it makes no sense what you say. I am sorry for that."

"Mobile, you are very mobile with your cell phone."

[re: Ohm is from Cologne, like Dr. Winkel]
Dr. Winkel: "He brought honor to this town."
Allison: "Is that you became a physicist?"
Dr. Winkel: <laughs> "Yes."

"You know what it looks like in reality... in reality... in reality TV."

"In order to honor Mr. Ohm, the unit of resistance is 1 ohm."

"Pardon? You don't like my omega?"

"That is what they like to do, to name units after scientists."

[re: On the board: Netherland]
"I think this is in Europe somewhere."

"Some of you can do the test in one period, some of you can do the work in two periods, who is more powerful?"

[re: Calories]
"They always have that on a soda can, or yogurt, or whatever you eat."

[re: Ohm]
"Don't forget, he is from my hometown. I think that is something you could memorize."

Dr. Winkel: "Let's say you have a 25W lightbulb and you keep it on the whole year."
Someone: "It would burn out."
Dr. Winkel: "Let's say you have a 400W toaster and you keep it on the whole year."

"Don't start to talk, just start the do now."

"I try to get it into your brain because that is the best way to learn, with stupid things."

"Actually, I talked to Ohm in Cologne. Actually, he is dead."

"For example, you are at a store like Gap. No, that is too small. You are at Macy's. I was at Macy's at Christmas. There were so many people, and they were all moving. You are the electron, and you are trying to get through. If you glue the people to the ground, you get through easier. If you heat up the people, then they will move faster."

[re: Error message on the computer]
"Ooh, this is a message from Windows."

"This is called superconductivity because it is so super."

Someone in class: "Can you repeat the question?"
Dr. Winkel: "No."

"You have to keep your horses somehow."
[Hold your horses]

[re: How the electrons know where to go]
"Actually there is this little demon and he says 'Go here, over here.' No, this is nonsense, I am kidding."

[re: Draws a diagram with the demon]
"It would be like this, it would have to make a decision where to go."

"I want a student who has no idea... we want to laugh... we want to be entertained."

"Scientific way of thinking is very successful because you can build cars, and rockets, and stuff."

"So we draw my famous picture here."

[re: Circuit diagram]
"What if I put a lamp over here? Ah, that is a masterpiece."

"Here I have something funny-nice."

"So then they want to know if you are mature enough to put the ammeter and the voltmeter in the circuit."

[re: Given: V, I]
"You see this here actually it jumps into your eye that P = VI."

[re: demonstration]
"It is just a stone, so I have magic skills."

[re: strong magnet]
"Please be careful because it can crunch your fingers somewhat."

"Please do not steal the magnets. I know they are very nice - this one is very cute - but I want to show the other students."

"Actually I have here some wonderful rocks. Did you play with them yet?"

"So if I kick you out next time, you have to wait outside."

"I will get back to that in a few seconds."

"There is 100% proof that God exists because there is a big bar magnet in the center of the earth and he dug a hole and put it in."

"You should ask an earth scientist."

"The earth is a sphere, not a slice."

"You did not use your voice to transfer information."

"I have tons of stuff to play with. Oh look! That one's nice."

"So are you ready for these observations here?"

"So that is a Nobel Prize observation. Actually at the time this was discovered the Nobel Prize did not exist."

"Not 3 students at the same time. You can sing in a choir."

"It likes to break. If you throw it on the floor, it likes to break."

"If I am nice to the nail, if I am petting the nail with the magnet."

"It is too loud over here. I cannot understand my own voice."

"With the help of these elementary charges, you can understand a lot of phenomena."

"So we play that game where you think about it but I tell you."

"I have a fancy equipment for this that I show you."

"Oh, this is very good to clarify. Ah, why didn't I use this?"

"Somebody stole my power source."

"So if I am confusing you somehow let me know, and I will do my best."

Richard: "Dr. Winkel, do you know who Hugh Hefner is?"
Dr. Winkel:"No, is it a baseball player?"

"Working with magnet fields is like <long pause> the rappers." <makes odd shapes with his hands>

"So do I have my fancy strong magnet? No. Ah, this one is much better."

"So now I confuse you, on purpose a little bit."

"I change your seats, it doesn't work. You like each other too much."

"They bend their bones actually to figure it out."

"Do you see it?" <the class is silent> "Do you really see it?"

Class: "Don't break it!"
Dr. Winkel:"I don't want to break it because actually I am happy it works."

"Actually there is no [problem] 95, I just wanted to make you pay attention and look for this 95."

"If you want to show that you are smart this is a real opportunity for you."

"This is like a pancake shape. It is like a pancake but it is going to infinity."

"Gregory, use your hands to figure out the attraction."

"You might see him in the afternoon when you have tea together."

"This is a 50/50, 50 to 50 change."

"Ja, I said it is a masterpiece to find it out."

"That is not class participation. You earn 0 points today for that."

"Then I keep the 10 points in my pocket."

Sarah: "Can I go to the bathroom?"
Dr. Winkel:"No."
Sarah: "Why?"
Dr. Winkel:"I think you'd better stay."

[re: North-South alignment of a bar magnet]
"However, this is not given by God. This is manmade."

"So I have to do it in a way that does not block the view."

"That is important, I told you, it gives you a 400% chance of getting the wrong answer." <Writes on the board in big letters, over equations that are already there: important>

"What are you using your voice for? Are you talking to yourself, or are you trying to transfer information?

"Today you make me want to jump out of my shirt. You want to give me a heart attack."

<Someone hands him a slip for Hau> "Actually, I do not remember that we have a student with this name... maybe it is a synonym." <Writes "Hau Ngu Yen" on the board>

[re: Someone gives an answer]
"Okay, put that in some phrases."

"An extra exhibition for you... an extra performance for you..."<repeats experiment>

"But maybe by accident he was playing with - shit! Sorry."

"That is what enables us the gift of lightbulbs and electric motors."

Li: "Nothing."
Dr. Winkel:"Nothing? Do we have a number for that?"

"Erick, you need to carry some responsibility in your life" [hands him the attendance sheet to take to the office."

"So don't start to cry if you forgot what a convex mirror is."

"If you are not sure of this vector product, don't cry."

"The negative charges leave the positive charges. They are pretty sad, they are alone."

"However, we can deduce something more from this. If we want to."

"You look from the point of view of the magnet."

"So this is just a few number of problems so don't cry."

"The loop does not want it, it says 'No no no I oppose that.'"

Dr. Winkel:"So who said that about the repulsion?
Rachel: <raises hand>
Dr. Winkel:"Rachel! Rachel said that!"

"This is basically the same experiment, but a little more fancy, so it works better. Sometimes it's not working."

[re: the experiment is not working]
"I will kill someone... something."

[re: class tells him possible variations of the experiment]
"You are very creative students."

"So then we have our piece of metal attached over here somehow."

[re: experiment works, but the metal can only jump up a little]
"Aw."

"But I think I killed the bulb. Shit. It's sad. But at least now we know a paper clip is an electrical conductor."

"Do you have a piece of metal? No, it would be interesting to have one."

"It says 'No, I do not want a magnetic field that is puncturing my surface, actually.'"

"'No! I don't want the magnetic field passes through myself.'"

Dr. Winkel:"It is a homework."
Class: "We already have homework."
Dr. Winkel:"That doesn't matter. You can never have enough homework."

"Erick, there is somebody after you."

"Burn that into your brain."

"So they torture that poor particle to give up an electron. Or two."

"It did not work and I was so depressed."

[re: Gregory takes a long time drawing on the board]
"You really create an art piece over there."

[re: written above the homework]
"Your homework."

"So what is a self-induced EMF?" <silence> "Ah good, you really got it."

"If we go down to the microscopic world..."

"I remember I came up with an example that is not really true, but will help you."

"So it is in a bundle. Like bullets."

"It has to happen in 10 to the negative 25 seconds that I get an answer for this!"

[re: metals giving away electrons]
"They give it away like easy. For free."

"That is a totally different question. It is an interesting question, I have to admit that."

"The rest is given to the electron as a gift, for food. Kinetic Energy."

[re: graph]
"So what we see here is a wonderful plot."

[re: electrons]
"They are not energetic enough, like you."

"Why is the Compton effect important for us? It is named after Mr. Compton. I do not know his first name."

"I know you like better the movie theater effect, where you lean back and let him talk."

"That is a clear question. But [before] it was blurry and unclear."

"I don't know what it is today. It is not my day. I should go home."

"So we know what the work function is. If you do not know, stop me."

"Maybe you are so powerful and interested you have read it by yourself. Can you imagine that? [shakes head] No."

[re: homework]
"If you are not able to do it, I want you at least to struggle."

"And then Rutherford and his employees were messing around with alpha rays. And they were playing around with alpha rays and had nothing to do all day so they were shooting alpha rays."

[re: the overhead]
"It's a little bit blurry here, it's shit here. I did not say 'shit'. At least, I did not mean it. I am just a little upset."

"Maybe you are right, but I think I am right."

Dr. Winkel:"It is really blurry, I do not really like that."
Dorcas: "It's the transparency."
Dr. Winkel: "So you do not like my transparency, is that it?"

"If you have no idea what I'm talking about, you better stop me now."

"Stanley, are you able to formulate a question?"

[re: someone asks an irrelevant question]
"Actually, I do not feel like to think about it, because I am very into my summary."

"There are very nice approximations."

<Written on Li's homework> "Overdue not accepted."

"Rutherford used his scattering experiments."

[re: virtual photon]
"That means actually it is a photon you cannot catch."

"What are the elementary charges?"<points to the AIM, which reads: "What are really the elementary charges?">

Dr. Winkel: "So, you want me to confuse you a little bit?"

[re: meaning of 'unified']
"They do not distinguish anymore the Germans from the East and West."

"If you meet a man made out of antiparticles and shake his hand, you will turn into energy."

"So some people believe there is a whole world made up of these antiparticles, but don't shake their hands."

"You find some helium and this 'oh this is strange' actually they probably didn't think it but it's strange."

"It eats [the neutron] up then it has to throw up. I am sorry for that expression."

[re: nuclear fission]
"And we use it during peacetime in the power plants, or else for atomic bombs."

"Stay away from gamma rays because they destroy your DNA."

"Are you still with me thinking with me what this means?"

"How did we get from 90 to 91 protons? Did it have a baby?"

"It was right. It was just not visible how you got the number."

"Other questions about physics? Otherwise we should talk about launches."

Richard: "Can I go to the bathroom?"
Dr. Winkel: "Ja, you want to go to the bathroom."

"So it keeps that velocity forever. But it is not forever."

"Then we have to add them vectorally and that is why sine and cosine come into it."
