To cheer you guys up:

Kelvin was very cool.

Hollerith liked the hole idea.

Thompson enjoyed the plum pudding.

Van der Waals forced himself to mingle.

Bohr ate too much and got atomic ache.

Watt turned out to be a powerful speaker.

Volt thought the social had a lot of potential.

Heisenberg may or may not have been there.

Compton was a little scatter-brained at times.

Einstein thought it was a relatively good time.

After one bite Chandrasekhar reached his limit.

Stefan and Boltzman got into some hot debates.

Hamilton went to the buffet tables exactly once.

Coulomb got a real charge out of the whole thing.

Chadwick was handing out neutrons free of charge.

While Fermat sang, 'Save the Last Theorem for me,'

de Broglie mostly just stood in the corner and waved.

Pascal was under too much pressure to enjoy himself.

The Curies were there and just glowed the whole time.

Everyone was attracted to Tesla's magnetic personality.

Hertz went back to the buffet table several times a minute.

Born thought the probability of enjoying himself was pretty high.

Pauli came late, but was mostly excluded from things, so he split.

Cavendish wasn't invited, but he had the balls to show up anyway.

Instead of coming through the front door Josephson tunnelled through.

Ohm spent most of the time resisting Ampere's opinions on current events.

For Schrodinger this was more a wave function rather than a social function.

Gamow left the party early with a big bang while Hoyle stayed late

in a steady state.

The microwave started radiating in the background

when Penzias and Wilson showed up.

Cauchy, being the only mathematician there,

still managed to integrate well with everyone.

Everyone gravitated toward Newton, but he just kept moving around at a

constant velocity and showed no reaction.

Millikan dropped his Italian oil dressing.

Hilbert was pretty spaced out for most of it.

Faraday had quite a capacity for food.

Wien radiated a colourful personality.

Rontgen saw through everybody.

And Oppenheimer got bombed.
