Change notice -- Planck's constant upgraded

boyd@cs.buffalo.edu (Daniel F Boyd)
(smirk, science, original)

[This is the actual format which our Computing Center uses for
change notices.]

Effective:	September 15, 1993
  Product:	Planck's constant 'h'
  Version:	1.1 (Replaces 1.0)
  Systems:	The universe as we know it
   Change:	Upgrade to '2'.
    Image:	Every atom and photon in the observable universe
Installer:	God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit
  Contact:	Richard P. Feynman

    Notes:	The referenced change to this physical constant will
		end all life as we know it on this planet and in the
		observable universe.  From the equation E=hf which
		denotes the energy of a photon as the function of its
		frequency, we see that photons will suddenly carry
		much much more energy.  The emissions from your TV
		remote will become as dangerous as gamma rays; you
		would shoot holes in the wall with it, except that the
		Uncertainty Principle says you won't be able to pick
		up the remote because you won't be able to determine
		its position (nor the position of your hand) to enough
		precision to tell you if it's even in the same room
		with you.

		Users inconvenienced by this change should call the
		Help Desk in 216 Computing center(645-3540) or the
		Graphics Consultant in 204 Computing Center.
