SLAC的博士Michael Binger,采访他的一段报道:
Michael Binger hopes to continue doing research in physics without having to run the rat-race of getting a job and impressing all the right people as he puts it. A win here at the World Series of Poker Main Event would definitely give him the freedom to do pretty much anything he wants.
总数达4.123百万美刀的奖金,哈哈.
突然想到,在互联网时代,还真是一个回归,开放获取如果做好了，就真是共产主义时代来临了。

For the record (fwd)
before taxes, Michael’s winnings are roughly equivalent to:
* ~1/2 the founding grant for a Kavli Institute
* 8 MacArthur Genius Grants (the Stanford Physics dept. has 2 recipients)
* 93 years of a Stanford undergrad education (at the ‘05-’06 costs)
* 176 years of a Berkeley undergrad education (at the ‘05-’06 costs)
* 100 years of the NSF fellowship (more if you only count the stipend)
* 2 million salmon sushi at CU Sushi in Berkeley
想到了一字千金
如果把一字千金的典故和知识经济联系起来，可以说是"千金一字"——追求真善美的经济代价是非常巨大的，可是关心这个问题的人是很少的，甚至认为金钱是追求真善美的阻碍的人也不乏其人——即使这些人的关于真善美的的知识来自于自己并未觉察的深厚的经济基础。
