Quote

  • Grover and his brother Lou Lowdermilk both pitched for the 1911 Cardinals. Grover was 6 ft 4 in (1.93 m) and lean, with long fingers, and was favorably compared to Walter Johnson – except that he couldn't control his blazing fastball. He was a member of the 1919 Black Sox but was not involved in the scandal.William A. Borst
gollark: No. Someone with more physics knowledge could answer better than me, but, very approximately: "laser" stands for "light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation", and describes a specific way to generate light through some magic process using a "gain medium" and optical feedback thing.
gollark: That would not actually be a laser.
gollark: I think you would need a hilariously expensive and large free electron laser for that.
gollark: Lasers are "bright" because the output light is "compacted" into a small area.
gollark: *Fairly* sure, yes.
