Lame

Instapundit linked to "60 Symbols" of astronomy (I'd say astrology) and physics. It's totally lame. For example the Greek lower-case lambda is labeled "lambda". Not eigenvalue, or anything cool. Just "lambda".

And the "h" in the upper right isn't even correct. Plank's constant has a off-kilter cross on the rise of the h.

Steve: I agree, pretty lame. Is there really a cat symbol used for Shroedinger's cat? N stands for "large numbers"? The brain icon is a symbol for MRI of the brain? Magic drinking bird? Huh? I think h-bar=h/(2*pi) though.
